This is a comprehensive, warts-and-all, biography of the cartoonist, Robert Crumb. It is a dense tome, giving in-depth attention to periods of his life 1914-2024 (he was born in 1943). Much of the information is gleaned from Crumb’s own writings and drawings. I now have a more intimate understanding about him and his family than I have of my own.

There are a few examples of his drawings (my ARC was blurry; maybe the actual book will be easier to see/read). I think this is the book for aficionados of him and his work.

I would like to thank Scribner and Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ for the opportunity to read and review this book.
