The perfect gift for every single person on the planet. Hi, It's Me Again is the second cartoon compilation from
New Yorker cartoonist Asher Perlman, who NPR's Scott Simon calls "one of today's great
New Yorker cartoonists." A follow-up to his debut, the national bestselling
Well, This Is Me, Asher's sophomore effort is the perfect addition to any coffee table, bookshelf, or nightstand.
Stephen Colbert calls Asher "very funny [and] keenly attuned to the inherent strangeness of existence." Ben Stiller describes Asher's cartoons as "the kind of funny that makes you question what it is to be a person." And Bruce Springsteen says, "Baby, we were born to run." That's not as relevant here, but it's a really great song.
A well-proportioned blend of single-panel cartoons and longer narrative pieces,
Hi, It's Me Again has it all, from a vampire stress-drinking blood to a pinata pressuring her son into joining the family business.
A much-anticipated release, one thing is for sure:
Hi, It's Me Again is the best compilation of Asher's cartoons since his last cartoon compilation, and it will certainly remain the best at least until his next.
