{"product_id":"to-laugh-that-we-may-art-young-9781606999943","title":"To Laugh That We May Not Weep: The Life and Art of Art Young","description":"Art Young was one of the most renowned and incendiary political cartoonists in the first half of the 20th century. And far more -- an illustrator for magazines such as \u003cem\u003eThe Saturday Evening Post\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eColliers\u003c\/em\u003e, a magazine publisher, a New York State Senatorial candidate on the Socialist ticket, and perhaps the only cartoonist to be tried under the Espionage Act for sedition. He made his reputation appearing in \u003cem\u003eThe Masses\u003c\/em\u003e on a regular basis using lyrical, vibrant graphics and a deep appreciation of mankind's inherent folly to create powerful political cartoons. \u003cem\u003eTo Laugh That We May Not Weep\u003c\/em\u003e is a sweeping career retrospective, reprinting --often for the first time in 60 or 70 years-- over 800 of Young's timeless, charming, and devastating cartoons and illustrations, many reproduced from original artwork, to create a fresh new portrait of this towering figure in the worlds of cartooning and politics. With essays by Art Spiegelman, Justin Green, Art Young biographer Marc Moorash, Anthony Mourek, and Glenn Bray, with a biographical overview of Young's life and work by Frank M. Young, \u003cem\u003eTo Laugh That We May Weep\u003c\/em\u003e is a long-awaited tribute to one of the great lost cartoonists whose work is as relevant in the 21st century as it was in its own time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Art Young, Art Spiegelman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 160699994X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606999943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fantagraphics Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.90h x 10.50w x 1.30d","brand":"Art Young","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43979342905599,"sku":"9781606999943","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c6e1ef9-8d13-44a5-bf62-ef3ba8dc0b41.jpg?v=1683245054","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/to-laugh-that-we-may-art-young-9781606999943","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
