The Book of Onions

by Jake Thompson
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
"Deranged, beautiful, hilarious, and poignant, Jake Likes Onions is one of my absolute favorite comics." —Matthew Inman, Eisner Award winner and #1 New York Times–bestselling author of How to Tell If Your Cat Is Plotting to Kill You
Ranging from the relatable to the utterly nonsensical and bizarre, The Book of Onions focuses on themes of loneliness, desperation, and failure. And misplaced optimism. And perverted talking fruit. Sort of like Gary Larson's "The Far Side," if Gary were way less accomplished and suffered from depression.
"Witty, subtle, and surreal, these comics look like they were drawn by a time-traveling Victorian caricaturist with a strange mind and a keen eye for the oddities of modern life." —Reza Farazmand, New York Times–bestselling author of Hope It All Works Out! A Poorly Drawn Lines Collection
"Jake's gags sting. And they have many layers. And they stay with you for quite a while. All very much like the eponymous vegetable." —Nicholas Gurewitch, Eisner Award-winning creator of The Perry Bible Fellowship
