Gary Larson's second Gallery gathers single-panel cartoons from The Far Side, in which cows, chickens, snakes, cavemen, scientists, and dogs behave in odd and often cruel ways. Many panels play on science, such as insects dealing with a human, or on stereotypes, like a mad scientist or a pair of castaways on a desert island. The humor depends on a clear drawing and a short caption that twists an expectation.
The book is best for people who enjoy absurd, sharp, deadpan humor and who like to read cartoons in short sittings. Anyone who has seen a Far Side strip on an office door will recognize his style and find a large number of them here.
Practical, outward-looking, growth-minded and clear-cut; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Practical Optimizer. Which reader are you?
