Sempe Mixed Messages
Author(s): Jean-Jacques Sempe
Cartoonist and illstrator Jean-Jacques Sempe has been delighting readers in France and beyond with his witty drawing and cunning eye for the finer amusements of the human condition for over 40 years. This most recent body of his work from 2003, is now available in English. In "Mixed Messages", Sempe turns his attention to the trappings of modern life, mobile phones, designer water, as well as revisiting his favourite subjects, struggling artists, aloof psychologists and unhappy couples. Now in English by the "Asterix the Gaul" translator Anthea Bell, this book appeals to Francophiles, cartoonists, and the general public.
