Summary

Lots of individuals in society today are feeble-minded。 They don't know what the HELL is going on。 Unfortunately many of these people are responsible for running THE COUNTRY。 Their ideas are MEANINGLESS, illustrated using RUBBISH imagery (often made by a computer)。 The stupid words they write are always in BAD FONTS。 Yet still people HEED this nonsense。 Maybe YOU are one of these people? It's alright。 I am here to HELP you。 I have a FULLY-COMPOSED WORLD VIEW。 I have STRONG opinions about EVERYTHING。 And my ideas are HAND-ILLUSTRATED and use REAL HANDWRITING that you can trust。 I know exactly what's going on and am WILLING to share my thoughts with you。 If you LISTEN to what I say then things will quickly improve。

I like the illustrations and the messages behind each poem。 The simplicity, stupidity and complexity of humanity is expressed brilliantly。

I really enjoy Shrigley's illustrations。 They seem random and absurd then somehow on point。 There's nothing extra in comparison to his instagram page, however always support your favourite artists。 I really enjoy Shrigley's illustrations。 They seem random and absurd then somehow on point。 There's nothing extra in comparison to his instagram page, however always support your favourite artists。 。。。more

I was surprised but not disappointed。 I though this would be more direct in him explaining/exploring the title, but no。 It's much more deep than that。 Has a lot of illustrations with strong messages and strong meanings。 Makes you think。 I was surprised but not disappointed。 I though this would be more direct in him explaining/exploring the title, but no。 It's much more deep than that。 Has a lot of illustrations with strong messages and strong meanings。 Makes you think。 。。。more

I love Shrigley and his art and his worldview but I'm not sure that it translate into a satisfying book experience。 I love Shrigley and his art and his worldview but I'm not sure that it translate into a satisfying book experience。 。。。more

Deceptively simple and very funny。

I am only on the 15th-ish page and this is already one of my favorite books of all timeETA: I have finished the book。 It has changed my life。

Samuel

More silly and profound drawings from one of my favourite artists。

Sumit Sabnis

My kind of book, more images, less words, lots of common sense!

Amber

Quick read as the format permitted。 I found the majority of the illustrations and words quite humorous, many in a dark way as I'm sure the artist intended。 Will definitely be sharing a number of the pages with friends and family!
