The Homer Book (Simpsons Library of Wisdom)

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.

Matt Groening, the creator and executive producer of the Emmy^® Award-winning series The Simpsons, as well as creator of the cartoon strip "Life in Hell" and the animated FOX television series Futurama, is the man responsible for bringing animation back to primetime and creating an immortal nuclear family. In addition, Groening formed Bongo Comics Group in 1993 and currently serves as publisher of The Simpsons Library of Wisdom, Simpsons Episode Guides, Simpsons Comics, Bart Simpson Comics, Radioactive Man Comics, Simpsons Comics Treasure Trove, the annual Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror, Futurama Comics and more than 36 comic compilations, as well as many instant classics including Bart Simpsons Guide to Life, The Simpsons Handbook and The Simpsons Uncensored Family Album.
