Book Subtitle | Mixed Messages |
Book Description | Sempe has created a world above and beyond specific cultural and political references, a world all of his own, one populated by long-faced, aquiline-nosed depressives - psychoanalysts, housewives, and concert pianists. In 'Mixed Messages' he turns his attention to the trappings of modern life from mobile phones to designer water." |
Editorial Review | "Poking fun at the urbane patrons of fashionable restaurants to the inhabitants of sleepy hamlets, Sempe treats all his subjects with insight and affection."-The Oldie |
