[The Playwright – Hardcover] – (Daren White, Eddie Campbell)
The playwright is a dark, romantic comedy about the sex life of a celibate, middle-aged man. The book is printed as if it is a collection of newspaper comic strips with text above the panels and the words in a series of introspective monologues. The book is illustrated in an artistic water color fashion and the art style fits the story well. The Playwright is semi erotic and has quite a lot of nudity but it isn’t pornographic. The nudity is done in an artistic way so it isn’t shocking but you still wouldn’t want to read it on a train. A good book but for some reason it never really captured me.
