Praise for Messages From My Father by Calvin Trillin:"As a writer, Calvin Trillin is good company, with all the qualities that make a 'great seat' at a dinner party: witty, not cutting; smart, not overbearing; and amusing enough to save the day if a waiter has bad aim." -- The New York TimesPraise for Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? by Roz Chast:* "Revelatory... So many have faced (or will face) the situation that the author details, but no one could render it like she does. A top-notch graphic memoir that adds a whole new dimension to readers' appreciation of Chast and her work." -- Kirkus Reviews
