Guaranteed to brighten the day of both friends and relatives, Roy Schlemme's astute visual observations and wry commentary on the human condition provide a wonderfully entertaining respite from the humdrum of our everyday routine. As for those who'd like to see a bit more of Schlemme's work, three other books (Skewed Views, Skewed Views Too and The Moon's First Banana) are also available gift-giving ideas ideal for those with a slightly bent sense of humor.
