A clever, funny and bitingly critical cultural commentary, using spinning digressions to tell the stories of a group of interconnected characters in London and Egypt, each transformed by the idea of revolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeautifully and thoughtfully designed by Studio Frith, hailed by the New York Times as the \"go-to graphic designer”, Kapow! asks readers to open and unfold pages, to follow text leaking in and out of paragraphs, to discover more and more visual surprises, while progressively becoming part of and lost within the narrator’s giddy digressions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKapow! is a beautifully crafted object told in Thirlwell’s uniquely acrobatic voice: a visually immersive storytelling experience like no other.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note this copy has light creases on the covers and some scuffs on the edges of the covers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: \u003cspan tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Text Text__body3\"\u003e9780008600303 \u003cspan class=\"Text Text__subdued\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize: Paperback, 81 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: \u003cspan tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Text Text__body3\"\u003eVisual Editions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYear: 2012\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"B - Good Condition","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47663382823068,"sku":null,"price":7.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/1597\/0972\/files\/kapow_2.jpg?v=1790056850","url":"https:\/\/booksforless.co.nz\/products\/kapow","provider":"Books For Less","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
