Schulz. To illuminate the life story and rich inner life of the renowned cartoonist, Fantagraphics presents four of the most comprehen-sive interviews ever conducted with Schulz, by film critic Leonard Maltin, novelist Laurie Colwin, Comics Journal editor and critic Gary Groth, and comic strip historian Rick Marschall. These conversations delve into the moral, aesthetic, and intellec-tual foundations of Schulz's worldview and art. They reveal him to be a man who embodies elements of all of his characters--from the goofiness of Snoopy to the melancholy of Charlie Brown to the brashness of Lucy and more--but who also contains depths of personality far beyond the borders of his strip. Copiously illustrated with Peanuts strips and other comics and illustrations, \u003cem\u003eWhat Cartooning Really Is\u003c\/em\u003e humanizes Charles M. Schulz, the man who drew Snoopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 20, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51768870142240,"sku":"9781683963820","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/054d4f6324843ede6cb1a0a18ce5f977.webp?v=1780339433","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/what-cartooning-really-is-the-major-interviews-with-charles-m-schulz-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
