    About this ebook

    This is a powerful and darkly humorous graphic polemic by a leading British comi artist that investigates our increasingly dangerous relationship with cars. If you want to get away with murder, buy a car. Combining autobiography, statisti, case histories, advertising and reportage, Woodrow Phoenix draws a compelling picture of the warped psychology behind our need for speed.

      Dec 11, 2021

      Before this year, I typically read one book at a time. Now I alternate, and I find the trick is to switch from one kind to another: chip away at the long ones while flying through the shorts. The post A Year in Reading: Nick Moran appeared first on T

      Sure, sure, it’s hot, and you’re not going to shower, and this will force some choices at Glastonbury that you wouldn’t make in regular life: shorter shorts, for instance, or a hat. This doesn’t even come close to explaining the wild precision, the c

      Not actually a novel, but definitely graphic; this is a striking but measured rant about car-use, from someone who is a car-owner himself. I don't entirely know how much it would convince an SUV driver, or someone who doesn't already have a guilty conscience about driving, mind you.
