Enjoyment: From Laughter to Delight in Philosophy, Literature, Fine Arts, and Aesthetics
Okay, I'm going against the crowd on this one. As an artist and admirer of postage stamps, I was very excited about this book. However, it was very disappointing to me. I LOVE the idea of it, but I felt that the author/artist could have gone MUCH farther than he did with both the story and the art.
The story was nothing original at all. The conflicts, details, etc. are just what you would find in almost any other tale, with name changes and a few different details. And the art was just pictures matching the descriptions rather than what would normally be depicted on an actual postage stamp. Because postage stamps are small and have to be condensed versions of the story they are telling, the art must be top notch. While I liked the art, there was too much going on in each picture to allow me to believe it was actually a postage stamp.
