The Adventures Of Unemployed Man - Tapa blanda

"Crammed with clever puns, ingeniously illustrated and garnished with trenchant social commentary, this is surely the funniest economic primer ever written."--Salon.com "Laura Miller " "The Adventures of Unemployed Man is a furious, fearless, Swiftian kind of a book that - to slip into comic-strip speak just for a moment-ASTOUNDS with its wit, and AMAZES with its perspicacity. It should be read by everyone: by the forgotten, hardworking heroes of our desperate economy, who must toil increasingly hard merely to keep the wolf from the door, but also by its villains, who caused all the trouble in the first place. This book is so good it might cause a rare outbreak of shame among the ruling classes..."-- The Guardian "Rachel Cooke " "An absurdly funny and very smart take on the roots and the effects of the recession...the authors sneak in "fantastic facts" about the economy, but do so without getting didactic."-- San Francisco Chronicle "John McMurtrie " ""The Adventures of Unemployed Man" is a perfect assessment of the economic difficulties in which many of us find ourselves....the book is both lovingly reminiscent of the comic book circa 1975 and a searing parody of the form."--Popmatter.com "David Maine " "Societal woes are deftly handled..."The Adventures of Unemployed Man" is a satirical look at politics, the economy and superheroes-though not necessarily in that order."-- New York Times "George Gene Gustines " "Hilarious, clever, very relevant, and remarkably insightful and thought-provoking."--Time.com "Brad Tuttle " "The parody of classic superhero comics exposes, with laugh-out-loud yet sophisticated wit, the desperate situation many Americans find themselves in today."-- USA Today "Craig Wilson " "An openly political, satiric graphic novella that seems ripped from today's cable-TV headlines."-- Fort Worth Star-Telegram "Cary Darling "
