You Look Better Online: Your Life in 150 Unfiltered Cartoons - Book

Emmet Truxes’s cartoons brilliantly poke fun at our modern preoccupations and misfortunes—like New Yorker cartoons for the next generation. Featuring all-too-relatable depictions of millennial milestones and struggles (squeezing into cramped apartments, finding true love on dating apps, nailing the perfect selfie), You Look Better Online is for anyone who’s ever narrowly avoided walking into traffic because they were looking at their smartphone. This book takes a humorous look at how becoming an adult intersects with the entrenchment of technology in our everyday lives; it cleverly and keenly observes and captures a moment in time. From the lofts of New York City to the traffic jams of LA and beyond—Emmet Truxes’s cartoons brilliantly poke fun at our hobbies and misfortunes in a vein similar to that of the New Yorker. Featuring all-too-relatable depictions of millennial milestones and struggles (squeezing into cramped apartments, finding true love on dating apps, nailing the perfect selfie), You Look Better Online is full of self-deprecating good fun for anyone obsessed with their smartphone. You Look Better Online does what only the best cartoons can: it gently chides its audience while insightfully and accurately depicting their lives.(This book may contain a small, black sharpie mark on the bottom edge, so that it can't be returned to a different wholesaler.)
