Hilarious stories about life's mishaps from the creator of the immensely popular blog 'Hyperbole and a Half'. Fully illustrated with over 50% new material. Hyperbole and A Half is a blog written by a 20-something American girl called Allie Brosh. She tells fantastically funny, wise stories about the mishaps of her everyday life, with titles like 'Why Dogs Don't Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving' and 'The God of Cake'. She accompanies these with naive drawings using Paint on her PC. Brosh’s website receives millions of visitors a month and hundreds of thousands per day. Now her full-colour debut book chronicles the many “learning experiences” Brosh has endured as a result of her own character flaws. It includes stories about her rambunctious childhood; the highs and mostly lows of owning a mentally challenged dog; and a moving and darkly comic account of her struggles with depression. Poignant and uproarious - think Cyanide and Happiness but with story-lines, cake and dogs.

Amüsante Einblicke in die Welt der extrem erfolgreichen Bloggerin. Absurd, seltsam, einfach wundervoll: Hilfloses Gelächter und ein hoher Wiedererkennungswert sind garantiert, wenn die überaus erfolgreiche Bloggerin Allie Brosh in ihren unnachahmlichen Zeichnungen und genialen Texten davon erzählt, welcher Fluch eine leichtfertige Äußerung sein kann, vor allem, wenn es dabei auch noch um Tabasco-Sauce geht; wie sie herausfindet, dass ihr Hund minderbemittelt ist (sie liebt ihn trotzdem); warum sie nicht erwachsen werden kann (Verantwortung führt nur zu Systemabstürzen); und vor allem natürlich von ihrer Fähigkeit, Dinge, die getan werden müssen, nicht zu tun. So macht sie ein für alle Mal klar, warum Tiefpunkte, Macken und andere Katastrophen einen gleichzeitig weinen und lachen lassen.

Liebst du es, neue Geschäftskontakte zu knüpfen, um deiner Karriere auf die Sprünge zu helfen? Ist das Erwachsensein für dich eine aufregende neue Herausforderung, der du ohne Weiteres gewachsen bist? Bäh! Verschwinde bitte. Für alle anderen gibt es diese einzigartigen, lässig gezeichneten Comics von Sarah Andersen. In Erwachsen werd ich (vielleicht) später zeigt die junge New Yorker Künstlerin, wie wir an schönen Wochenenden unsere ganze Zeit im Internet vergeuden, wie wir uns schicke Kleidung kaufen und trotzdem wieder zum abgenutzten Lieblingspulli greifen oder wie wir manchmal einfach liegen bleiben anstatt unsere Lebenspläne in Angriff zu nehmen. Die herrlich erfrischenden Comics sind ein Spiegel unserer Weigerung, erwachsen zu werden. Ein Buch, das vielen jungen Frauen aus der Seele spricht.
