Synopsis

A great gift idea for fans of the Simpsons: The Homer Book is one of Matt Groening's series of portable and quotable books that eliminate the need for all religions and philosophies, exalt man’s role in the universe, and make the world a better place...sort of.

No other television show in history has commented so freely and so humorously on modern times, and there seems to be no end in sight for the sharp satire and pointed parody that “The Simpsons” serves up every night of the week all around the world. So start collecting your wisdom now with the first two volumes, The Quotable Homer and The Quotable Bart.

America’s favorite dad tells “the truth” or at least his version of the truth in this handy dandy volume chock full of quotes, quips, dialogues, diatribes, insults and ingenuity that will lift you out of the D’oh-ldrums! Homer Simpson takes on both the sacred and the profane and all of the in between in his own inimitable and inscrutable style.
