AMERICAN SPLENDOR LIFE AND TIMES OF HARVEY PEKAR GN

PANTHEON BOOKS

OCT088125

(W) Harvey Pekar (A) Various

Two classic comic anthologies in one volume. American Splendor is the world's first literary comic book. Cleveland native Harvey Pekar is a true American original. A V.A. hospital file clerk and comic book writer, Harvey chronicles the ordinary and mundane in stories both funny and touching. His dead-on eye for the frustrations and minutiae of the workaday world mix in a delicate balance with his insight into personal relationships. Pekar has been compared to Dreiser, Dostoevsky, and Lenny Bruce. But he is truly more than all of them - he is himself.
