{"product_id":"curses","title":"Curses","description":"The River at Night cartoonist revisits his early-aughts breakthrough\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the two decades since Curses first hit the shelves, River at Night cartoonist Kevin Huizenga has taken his rightful place on a short A-list of comics experimentalists. Deep research and loopy cartooning serve up philosophical musings while maintaining a classic comic-strip devotion to “the gag.” Huizenga remains one of the funniest and smartest cartoonists working today, and now, the very book that heralded his arrival as a talent to watch is available once more in deluxe paperback as the early work of a now true genius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe short stories collected herewith confront the textures of mortality in unique and peculiar ways. Central character Glenn Ganges is a seemingly middle-class, suburbanite whose blank-eyed wonderment at the everyday brings together diverse aspects of our world―like golf, theology, late-night diners, parenthood, politics, Sudanese refugees, and hallucinatory vision―into a complete experience as multifaceted as each of our own lives.","brand":"Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47854238335202,"sku":"MTO-MACMILLAN-2026-06-2-11.68-408","price":37.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/9898\/5881\/files\/book_407_yL0m0KfwZ.jpg?v=1780448640","url":"https:\/\/layitflat.com\/products\/curses","provider":"Lay it Flat Publishing Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
