The definitive collection of the work of cult artist David Shrigley, who has been nominated for the Turner Prize 2013

A beautifully designed and darkly comic collection of work, this book gathers together the best of Shrigley's work, old and new. It is a celebration of the surreal world of one of our finest contemporary artists.

"A brilliant new volume" - * Scotland on Sunday *

"Consistently funny" - * Daily Telegraph *

"[A] master of modern surrealism . . . a must for fans of the absurd" - * Evening Standard *

"Weird, funny, abject, wise, silly, savage, moral and engaging." - * Independent *

"Shrigley's comedy appears to confirm the belief of great humourists (from Laurence Sterne to Woody Allen) that laughter is synonymous with hope. In the arena of contemporary art, Shrigley's work maintains a dualism, which is rare, rewarding and ultimately generous." - * Frieze *

"David Shrigley is a rare thing in the art world: someone whose work people - normal(ish) people - actually love" - * The Skinny *

"The Glasgow-based artist's scribbly drawings and witty captions have inspired a cult following and a celebrity fanbase including Will Self and Franz Ferdinand." - * X Magazine *

"Wonderfully skewed" - * The Glasgow Herald *

"Shrigley specialises in the humour of a horny teenage boy crossed with an uptight conservative wrangling with modern moral dilemmas. Needless to say, we are in love." - * The Gay Times *

"A must for fans of the absurd" - * ES magazine *

"Half man, half legend" - * Skinny *

"Over the 300 or so pages, Shrigley mines a mordant, scatological seam, conjuring up the dark tradition of British humour that threw up Tony Hancock and Chris Morris" - * The Times *

"Of his 20-odd books, this is by far the best. Plus, he's really famous now, so this might be the only way you'll ever own anything he's drawn" - * X Magazine *

"A massive yellow compendium of paintings, writings, sculptures and scrawlings from an artist touched by comic genius and something like full-blown lunacy" - * The Lady *
