About this product

Product Information

The book that Janet Maslin of The New York Times has called "indispensable" and "a transfixing study of American mores and manners that happens to incorporate boundless laughs, too" is finally available in paperback--fully updated and featuring a brand new introduction by Adam Gopnik. Organized by decade, with commentary by some of the magazine's finest writers, this landmark collection showcases the work of the hundreds of talented artists who have contributed cartoons over the course of The New Yorker's eight-two-year history. From the early cartoons of Peter Arno, George Price and Charles Addams to the cutting-edge work of Alex Gregory, Matthew Diffee and Bruce Eric Kaplan (with stops along the way for the genius of Charles Barsotti, Roz Chast, Jack Ziegler, George Booth, and many others), the art collected here forms, as David Remnick puts it in his Foreword, "the longest-running popular comic genre in American life." Throughout the book, brief overviews of each era's predominant themes--from the Depression and nudity to technology and the Internet, highlight various genres of cartoons and shed light on our pastimes and preoccupations. Brief profiles and mini-portfolios spotlight the work of key cartoonists, including Arno, Chast, Ziegler, and others. The DVD-ROM included with the book is what really makes the "Complete Cartoons" complete. Compatible with most home computers and easily browsable, the disk contains a mind-boggling 70,363 cartoons, indexed in a variety of ways. Perhaps you'd like to find all the cartoons by your favorite artist. Or maybe you'd like to look up the cartoons that ran the week you were born, or all of the cartoons on a particular subject. Of course, you can always begin at the beginning, February 21, 1925, and experience the unprecedented pleasure of reading through every single cartoon ever published in The New Yorker . Enjoy this one-of-a-kind protrait of American life over the past eight decades, as captured by the talented pens and singular outlooks of the masters of the cartoonist's art.

The book was shipped loose in an oversized box with no padding and the dust jacket tore in transit. The CD-ROM disks are not readable by modern computers. However, the book by itself is quite substantial and entertaining.

  • Comprehensive

    One of the minor things that defined The New Yorker magazine has been its cartoons. In one rather massive volume are all the cartoons from its beginnings to only a few years ago. To include the staggering number of different cartoons, many of then are presented at reduced size when compared with how they were published in the magazine. Many of the cartoons are -- or were -- topical, so some of the subtle allusions in some of them might be lost for younger readers. In addition to being presented chronologically, there are essays on some of the more famous cartoonists, such as Chas Addams and William Steig, providing insights on them as indivisuals. Missing from the book are some of the catrtoon magazine covers. Also, there are cartoons on the CD that are not included in the hardcover ...

  • Complete Cartoons of the New Yorker by Remnic, Mankoff

    I've always enjoyed New Yorker cartoons, possibly the best on the planet, and the complete collection to 2004 not only features their finest in a monster book of over 600 pages, but adds a page or two of literate and intelligent commentary that introduces each era, contributing context as well as commentary on the inner workings of Harold Ross and the The New Yorker operation itself. Even the early cartoons hold up well, and their only changes have been for the better. -- Bill Helmer.

  • Good choice, highly recommended for the smart cartoon lovers

    Fun and entertaining book with CDs included, definitely needs some time to get through it.

  • Love the Addams cartoons

    I am interrested in the Addams cartoons.(they are the basis for the Addams Family franchise) They are not available on the web. They can only be purchased in book form. the cost of this book is made up for with the contributionbs of this one artist alone. The others are fantastic as well. This is a book you will lose yourself in, and love it. It even comes with all the cartoons on two discs. The entries are searchable and even more in number than the book. I am glad I bought this huge book. If you have a sense of humor and a brain you will love it too.
