Language and exaggerated stereotypes. It's full of historical and cultural references... I learned something from the cartoons (yeah I know they're fiction and exaggerated for the sake of humour, but they're still as accurate as most of the history and literature dished out to us in school... okay more accurate) and I might have to research. I was all set to give it four stars for being excellent, and then I found the index. A comprehensive and detailed index just in case some nerdy soul needs to find the cartoons about Julius Caesar or Tom Longboat quickly. FIVE STAARS!
"The cover and title of this book play on 19th-century cartoons depicting velocipeding women as shocking and inappropriate, but we’d say “AWESOME” declares Beaton (Hark! A Vagrant; The Princess and the Pony). ..." Pertenece a las seriesHark! A Vagrant (2) Es una parodia dePremiosDistincionesListas de sobresalientes
"Ida B. Wells, the Black Prince, and Benito Juárez burst off the pages of Step Aside, Pops: A Hark! A Vagrant Collection, armed with modern-sounding quips and amusingly on-point repartee. Kate Beaton's second D+Q book brings her hysterically funny gaze to bear on these and even more historical, literary, and contemporary figures. Irreverently funny and carefully researched, no target is safe from Beaton's incisive wit in these satirical strips" -- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
