The Knight Life-Chivalry ain't Dead Giveaway and Review

From the publisher, Hachette's website:

The Knight Life is a hilariously twisted view of life through the eyes and pen of its creator, community-oriented urban hipster and award-winning cartoonist Keith Knight. The Knight Life deftly blends political insight and neurotic humor in a uniquely fluid and dynamic style, offering a comic strip that's fresh, sharp, topical and funny. Designed for daily newspapers, The Knight Life follows Knight's long-running, 2007 Harvey Award-winning weekly comic strip "The K Chronicles," which appears on salon.com.

An unabashedly provocative political and social satire, The Knight Life tackles contemporary issues like consumer culture, bacon, the media, race, family and everything else, gently mocking the minutiae of daily life with self-deprecating humor, honesty and goofiness-a combination that's perfect for the comics. And The Knight Life's energetic style reminds readers that comics can look funny as well as read funny. The result is accessible yet edgy, compassionate and political-and never preachy. Cartoonist and comic historian R.C. Harvey said, "The Knight Life is undeniably the best new laugh- and thought-provoker on the comics page. Not since Calvin and Hobbes has there been so novel an entertainment in the funnies. 

MY TAKE ON THE BOOK:  I'm an old school comic reader of  The Peanuts, Far Side and Calvin and Hobbs. I wasn't familiar with this strip until I was given the book to review. This book is a collection of strips from the past two year.  It is a Nationally syndicated strip. I found it very witty! I loved the strip on warning kids to not forget to floss their teeth! It listed a bunch of treasure you might find like "webster" or scrabble tiles! I also cracked up at the strip on The Bacon of the Month Club! A few of my friends (Cwirla you are one of them) are obsessed with bacon so it brought this strip right home for me!

This is just the type of funny book to have in the car to read while you are waiting for your kids to get out of play or swim practice!
