Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reader Copy of Uncorrected Proof in paperback. Quite bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "A hilarious debut novel that could only be described as a portrait of the designer as a young man. 'Um---so what exactly is a Cheese Monkey?' Good question. B…ut strictly off-limits. We can tell you that THE CHEESE MONKEYS is a witty and effervescent coming-of-age novel about headless waterfowl, fake plastic babies, and the basic tenets of graphic design. It's 1957, long before computers have replaced the trained eye and skillful hand. Our narrator at State U is determined to major in Art and after several risible false starts, he ends up by accident in a new class called Introduction to Graphic Design." [publisher copy] "Kidd's funhouse designs never fail to thrill. The same could be said of this unexpected, terrific novel by the designer himself. It's a pleasure to find that Kidd's writing is as meticulous and energized as his book jackets; still more a pleasure to discover in Kidd an irresistible comic voice that sounds so modern, and so right, even as it re-creates the undergraduate life of the late 1950s. THE CHEESE MONKEYS is, we realize, a manifesto for design itself. But it's more, too, thanks to Kidd's knack for disarmingly left-field observations. Like the provocative prof Sorbeck, Kidd, in this comic gem, teaches us a thing or two about how to look at the world."--Los Angeles Times. Pristine paperback ARC w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. Quite presentable & collectible.

Our narrator at State U is determined to major in Art and after several risible false starts, he ends up by accident in a new class called Introduction to Graphic Design." [publisher copy] "The renowned graphic artist Chip Kidd has with THE CHEESE MONKEYS shown us that there is nothing he cannot do. This, his bold first novel (and his readers will eagerly demand a second), is full of style and verve and nerve and spirit."--Lorrie Moore. "Kidd's gifts as a designer are also his gifts as a writer: wit, exquisite taste, high energy, and a mad love for the things of this world. A wild ride through a unique consciousness."--George Saunders. "Chip Kidd has created in Winter Sorbeck and his vaunted course, Art 127, one of the most vivid, expert, hilarious, and strangely gripping accounts of what it means to learn how to see. If THE CHEESE MONKEYS weren't so intelligent, rollicking, and downright entertaining, it would be chastening indeed to find that someone as visually gifted as Mr. Kidd also turned out to have considerable verbal plumage as well."--David Rakoff. Pristine, intricate & irresistible hardcover (handy Hardy-Boys size) w/brilliant corners, crisp & clever edges, a square & tight binding, w/intact front-boards sheath o/w no jacket as issued. A beautifully-designed artist's book.

Hardcover. Zustand: Collectible-Very Good. A hilarious debut novel that could only be described as a portrait of the designer as a young man.'Um.so what exactly is a Cheese Monkey?'Good question. But strictly off-limits. We can tell you that The Cheese Monkeys is a witty and effervescent coming-of-age novel about headless waterf…owl, fake plastic babies, and the basic tenets of graphic design. It's 1957, long before computers have replaced the trained eye and skillful hand. Our narrator at State U is determined to major in Art, and after several risible false starts, he ends up by accident in a new class called 'Introduction to Graphic Design.' Art 127 is taught by the enigmatic Winter Sorbeck, professor and guru (think Gary Cooper crossed with Darth Vader) -- equal parts genius, seducer, and sadist. Sorbeck is a bitter yet fascinating man whose assignments hurl his charges through a gauntlet of humiliation and heartache, shame and triumph, ego-bashing and enlightenment. Along the way, friendships are made and undone, jealousies simmer, the sexual tango weaves and dips.As readers, we too are under Sorbeck's bizarre spell, spurred on by his demand: 'Show me something I've never seen before and will never be able to forget-if you can do that, you can do anything.' By the end of The Cheese Monkeys, the members of Art 127 will never see the world the same way again. And, thanks to Chip Kidd's insights into the secrets of graphic design, neither will you.'Not only has Chip Kidd altered the face of publishing with his revolutionary book jackets, he has also written a really good debut novel (the bastard), and the big surprise is that the edgy, postmodern graphic designer who radicalized the way we look at the front of books is a pleasing, elegant traditionalist between covers. The Cheese Monkeys is a touching throwback: The story of an innocent young man's education, it has suspense, likable and vivid characters, a romantic, pitch-perfect re-creation of late '50s behavior and slang, and an effortlessly sustained comic charm throughout (and without curdling into cuteness -- not a simple achievement). I also can't remember the last time I read what is ostensibly a 'college' novel that actually taught me something.' -- Bret Easton Ellis.
