Next year will be a busy one on the book front. First up is the next installment in the ATTITUDE anthology series (I swear I had no idea there would be a repeat performance), ATTITUDE 2: THE NEW SUBVERSIVE SOCIAL COMMENTARY CARTOONISTS (NBM Publishing, February 2004, $13.95). I’m not in it per se, but I edited and compiled the work of 21 amazing cartoonists and asked the questions in the interviews. If you liked ATTITUDE, you’ll definitely want this one. If you missed it, not to worry–ATTITUDE 1: THE NEW SUBVERSIVE POLITICAL CARTOONISTS is in print and still available. Anyone who likes political cartooning and/or alternative weekly newspapers should pick it up.
Next up is WAKE UP, YOU’RE LIBERAL: HOW WE CAN TAKE AMERICA BACK FROM THE RIGHT (Soft Skull Press, April 2004), my book that diagnoses the troubles of the American left and offers solutions for them–including a new platform for a new majority Democratic Party. This is all prose, no cartoons, and contains nothing that has appeared elsewhere. This book could end up being a big deal.
Then, in June, look out for a collection of my writing and cartoons about Generalissimo El Busho’s first four years. More details on that as they become available.
