Synopsis
"McSweeney's 27" comes to you as three separate books in a windowed slipcase, presenting six possible faces to the world in order to best match your home decor. Book One plunges into the greyish, faintly understood area of the art world, involving oddly drawn objects coupled with uncertainly-spelled text. Book Two is a never-before-seen seventy-two page sketchbook by the legendary Art Spiegelman. Book Three collects new stories by Stephen King, Jim Shepard, and more.
