The Art Of William Steig By Claudia J Nahson

Posted at 5:14PM Wednesday 19 Mar 2008



The Art Of William Steig By Claudia J Nahson
ISBN: 9780300124781

With the slick, knowing movies in mind, it is refreshing to thumb through the pages of The Art of William Steig and appreciate the wit, freshness and breadth of his work. This ranges from the "Small Fry" cartoons of precocious kids - precursors of Charlie Brown and his gang - to the Picasso-esque doodles inspired by his encoutners with the Freudian psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich in the 40s.
