À propos de cet e-book
A collection of single panel comics poking fun at the aging process, from a syndicated American cartoonist.
“Where there is stress, or receding hairlines and liver spots, there is humor.” —John McPherson
Be it the ritual hazing of new residents at Spring Meadow Retirement Center that requires retirees to drink twenty-five shots of prune juice, or the oxymoronic humor involved in the publication of the “1st Annual Swimsuit Edition of Aging Today,” this collection of John McPherson’s cartoons finds humor in life’s most everyday act—namely, aging. Octogenarians, centenarians—even those younger and in between—all agree, John McPherson is a comic master when it comes to creating humor out of getting older.
Culling more than 100 aging-specific black-and-white and full-color panels from McPherson's Close to Home cartoon panel and featuring a zany cast of malpracticing medics, denture-less dentists, and cynical civil servants, this humorous compendium is the ultimate ode to being over the hill.
