The Knight Life by Keith Knight




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.

My Thoughts
This is one belly laugh of a book!! I wasn't sure what to expect when I opened the pages.  The cover is a great cartoon of how folks who are scared of spiders, perceive them.  Keith Knight touches on all sorts of subjects in this colorful comic.  From marriage, aliens, and sports and politics, there is something for everyone.  Some of the strips have footnotes by Mr. Knight to explain something about that particular strip, or just a line of dry humor.  Many strips are black and white, but there are colorful ones dispensed here and there throughout this oversized entertaining book.  I was pleasantly surprised as I read, and I laughed untli I had tears rolling down my face.  If your looking for something entertaining, pick up THE KNIGHT LIFE.  It's perfect to pick up your day!!

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
