Wonderful read about the amazing world of birds. Lives up to the blurbs. Maybe not for a the deep bird enthusiast but great for a beginner.

Brutal Outer London
Stark black and white photographs of residences, commercial interests, and government buildings tell a fascinating and evolving story of post-war but pre "Cool Britannia" London's architecture. Like it or not these buildings are part of that story and this book documents many to great effect. This book also matters because these buildings are at risk of destruction because of disuse, decay, and at times, absolute hostility.

As advertised: A loose, cartoony departure from Tomine’s previous work, Scenes from an Impending Marriage is a sweet-natured, laugh out-loud skewering of the modern marriage process..." As always his art is excellent.

Frank and emotionally honest story of a man who has become one grand old men of our age, but it has been a circuitous route and it is clear that he has had unlearn so many of his early survival skills and overcome many a childhood trauma to become what we know now, a man who so much more than his past. There is real depth to this man and I am glad to have read this.

Kirkus Reviews was right: “Somewhat repetitive in theme, often verging on the silly, but on the whole, quite amusing.”

Story was engaging, not brilliant. Worth a library checkout for sure. Art is fantastic, very painterly.
