<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The most personal and autobiographical work of Tomine's career, "Scenes from an Impending Marriage" is a charming, delightful token of love.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>MAKING LIGHT OF NUPTIAL NARCISSM</b> <p/>At the behest of his soon-to-be wife, Adrian Tomine set out to create a wedding favor for their guests that would be funnier and more personal than the typical chocolate bars and picture frames. What started out as a simple illustrated card soon grew into a full-fledged comic book: a collection of short strips chronicling the often absurd process of getting married. A loose, cartoony departure from Tomine's previous work, <i>Scenes from an Impending Marriage </i>is a sweet-natured, laugh out-loud skewering of the modern marriage process, including hiring a DJ, location scouting, trips to the salon, suit fittings, dance lessons, registering for gifts, and managing familial demands. The most personal and autobiographical work of Tomine's career, <i>Scenes from an Impending Marriage </i>is a charming, delightful token of love.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Adrian Tomine</b> is the author of <i>Shortcomings</i>, <i>Summer Blonde</i>, <i>Sleepwalk</i>, and <i>32 Stories</i>. He is a <i>New Yorker </i>contributor and lives in Brooklyn with his wife and daughter.</p>
