<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Ferociously Close to Home</em> delivers McPherson's trademark take on the absurdities of everyday life. To say that his solutions to these perplexing situations is 'out there' is an understatement. Consider Gina, who decides a branding iron will be the ideal memory aid for her birthday date-challenged husband. And poor Lanny, whose treadmill session is interrupted when he inadvertently triggers the health club's offensive odor alarm. </p> <p>McPherson has long walked the line between grotesque and goofy. But somehow, his figures with big noses and bulging eyes connect with readers with a surefire magnetic precision. Whether it's health care or parenting, dating or car repairs, <em>Close to Home</em> delivers McPherson's warped world without fail.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Readers can open the pages of the Washington Post, New York Daily News, Los Angeles Times, and Boston Globe and chuckle at a familiar situation--from shoveling snow to donating blood--that's gone askew."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>John McPherson hails from Painted Post, New York. He holds mechanical engineering and English degrees from Bucknell University and began drawing "Close to Home" in 1992.
