Hark! A Vagrant by Kate Beaton

Hark! A Vagrant, by Kate Beaton, 168 pages

For those comic/graphic novel fans out there, there's been alot of talk about this work by the New Yorker cartoonist.  I'm not a huge fan of New Yorker cartoons, but these were pleasantly delightful.  Sure, some of them fall a bit flat, unless you're up and current on your Canadian history.  But literary and history fans, especially, should like this collection.  There are strips on topics ranging from medieval manuscript fan-fiction, to my personal favorite, Nancy Drew book covers analyzed.
