The Complete Peanuts 1975-1976 (Vol. 13) (Complete Peanuts) [Hardcover]
Charles M. Schulz (Author), Robert Smigel (Introduction), Seth (Cover Design)
The complete Peanuts project reaches the halfway point with these 1975�76 strips attesting the timelessness of Schulz�s humor, despite the occasional topical note, as when Sally brings her pet rock to show and tell, and Lucy gives Schroeder Elton John glasses for Beethoven�s birthday. Comedy writer Robert Smigel observes in the introduction that these episodes are more absurd than what Schulz produced just a few years earlier. Even at its most extreme, such as when Peppermint Patty enrolls in a dog-obedience school after being given a brochure by Snoopy, the comedy remains warmly rooted in the characters� endearing foibles. --Gordon Flagg
Review
Reading [Schulz's] wonderful comics is enjoyable and comfortable, sort of like wearing a worn, favorite sweater. �The Complete Peanuts 1975-1976 is a humorous, welcome reprieve from a stressful, often screwed up, world. Thanks Mr. Schulz! (Glenn Perrett - Simcoe.com )
The Complete Peanuts 1975-1976 comes out in March, meaning we'll be halfway through this amazing, historical publication. I can't say enough about these collections. It's not only remarkable in its simple, truthful capturing of the human condition, but a beautiful historical document of the second half of the 20th Century. (Rob Kozlowski )
I received this as a gift from someone who didn't know that I already had it in my library. Still in shrink wrap from Amazon.
