A picture novella by cartoonist Seth
How to encapsulate a life, in all its messiness, epiphanies, misunderstandings, and disappointments? The tragicomic answer lies in Seth's exploration of George Sprott - outmoded television host, creature of habit, charming if pompous old man, selfish lover, man about to die. Through the story of one man's life and death, Seth explores the legend of Canada and the misguided blow-hards that spun the yarn of the Great White North.Â
From the author of Clyde Fans, George Sprott 1894-1975 was originally serialized in the New York Times Magazine.
