| Description: |
A refreshing alternative to the saccharine sentiments of Valentine's Day, this one-of-a-kind collection showcases hundreds of deliciously morbid cartoons by the legendary master of the American Gothic. Illustrations throughout. |
| Synopsis: |
Charles Addams was renowned for his depictions of love (or lack thereof) in his cartoons. The passion of Morticia and Gomez Addams, the lonely desires of Fester, the numerous grim and ghastly fights between husband and wife -- all found their way into Addams's signature drawings. Addams's concept of love was quite a bit different from the traditional idea of romance. Forget roses and chocolate, Addams will show you how to woo a mermaid or celebrate an anniversary on a desert island. Or how to keep your husband on a leash -- literally. Learn what to do when your prince stays a frog, even after you've kissed him. Compiled from Addams's personal archive, many of these cartoons are previously unpublished gems, while others are Addams classics. The cartoons in "Chas Addams Happily Ever After" run the gamut from ecstatic love to disappointed affection to murderous obsession and demonstrate that love really does hurt. |
