Mat Som Paperback – January 1, 1990
by Lat (Author), Adibah Amin (Translator)

KL in all its messy glory
By Shi-Hsia Hwa VINE VOICE on September 8, 2005
Format: Paperback
Lat is still the best Malaysian cartoonist around after all these years, and Mat Som is the best Malaysian graphic novel I've read. Even though the narrator is in his late twenties it has the feel of a coming-of-age novel, and also of being semi-autobiographical. Lat's style of drawing is both very polished and at the same time loose and animated, setting it apart from the run-of-the-mill cartoonists that appear in Gila-Gila magazine and the like.

The story deals with a young man struggling to make his bones as a journalist in KL, alongside his father's attempts to matchmake him with a woman he remembers only as a snotty five-year-old, struggles to find cash, and his growing interest in another young woman who lives nearby. The book is full of transitions between city and kampung, present and memory -- the KL river opposite Masjid Jamek merging into a lotus-filled stream. Mat Som's visit to his kampung recalls scenes from Lat's autobiographical "Kampung Boy" and "Yesterday and Today".

Art and Laughter [Paperback]
Sheri R. Klein (Author)

Book Description
Release date: December 26, 2006 | ISBN-10: 1850439311 | ISBN-13: 978-1850439318
This is the first book to take seriously (though not too seriously) the surprisingly neglected role of humour in art. Art and Laughter looks back to comic masters such as Hogarth and Daumier and to Dada, Surrealism and Pop Art, asking what makes us laugh and why, and exploring the use of comedy in art from satire and irony to pun, parody and black and bawdy humor. Encouraging laughter in the hallowed space of the gallery, Klein takes us on a tour of the comic work of Red Grooms, Cary Leibowitz, William Wegman, The Chicago Hairy Who, Richard Prince, Bruce Nauman, Jeff Koons, Vik Muniz and many more. She looks too at the smile in art and at the cute, the camp and the downright kitsch.

Nature Notes IV: The Natural Selection (Bk. 4)
Hardcover – September 1, 2004
by Peter Brookes (Author)

The world of Nature Notes is a place where the great and the good become the small and the furry, the edible, and the biodegradable. The Labour cabinet is a collection of nuts; Ken Livingstone is a newt; Iain Duncan Smith metamorphosises into the "Hardly Ever Spotted Moth." But on the receiving end of the most biting of Brookes' satire is the much discussed Bush/Blair coalition. The Red-necked grebe, genus name "Dubya texassa," does a war dance with the Brown-nosed Blair, and Donald Rumsfeld—Rumsfeld obliteratus—appears as the Hawk Moth. The fourth volume of Nature Notes is a wonderfully revealing commentary on the current obsession with Wars on Terror, the continuing spin of the New Labour government, as well as being a hilarious and incisive succession of merciless character studies.
