Clowes Daniel - Wilson - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Now a feature film with Woody Harrelson and Laura Dern A new paperback edition of the modern classic timed to the release of the Alexander Payne produced film version. Meet Wilson an opinionated middle - aged loner who loves his dog and quite possibly no one else. In an ongoing quest to find human connection he badgers friend and stranger alike into a series of one - sided conversations punctuating his own lofty discursions with a brutally honest self - negating sense of humor. After his father dies Wilson now irrevocably alone sets out to find his ex - wife with the hope of rekindling their long - dead relationship and discovers he has a teenage daughter born after the marriage ended and given up for adoption. Wilson eventually forces all three to reconnect as a family - - a doomed mission that will surely inevitably backfire. Daniel Clowes one of the leading cartoonists of our time creates a thoroughly engaging complex and fascinating portrait of the modern egoist - - outspoken and oblivious to the world around him. Working in a single - page gag format and drawing in a spectrum of styles the cartoonist of Ghost World Ice Haven and The Death - Ray gives us Wilson his funniest and most deeply affecting novel to date.
