Review Named a Best Comic & Graphic Novel of March 2019 by B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy blog“Don't even try to understand; just revel in the weirdness, along with the wonderful photographs and other archival material Frank includes in this book.”â€"Maureen Corrigan, National Public Radio“It’s a remarkable book.”â€"The Washington Post“Giraffes on Horseback Salad makes a good book.”â€"Etelka Lehoczky, National Public Radio“A really cool, funny, abstract graphic novel.”â€"CNET“Classic cinema buffs and Dalí fanatics will appreciate the care and effort taken by the authors.”â€"Booklist“This graphic novel is utterly one of a kind…the overall page compositions are exceptional, bursting with motion, mind-bending patterns, and wildly shifting color schemes…This messy, imperfect, fearless visual buffet is almost certainly better than any film version would have been.”â€"Publishers Weekly“The graphic novel is a fun read in its own right, and the well-told story behind the story makes it an interesting part of Hollywood’s history.”â€"San Diego Jewish World “A book that should satisfy fans of Dali or the Marx Brothers, or anyone looking for something completely outside the norm.”â€"Foreword Reviews“A most strange yet passionately earnest graphic novel...A lavish layout, with a nice overall design and chock full of opening essays and forewords that bring the reader along on Frank’s quest to find and bring Dali’s half-baked project to full fruition."â€"Geeks Of Doom“A sense of marvel persists throughout the book.”â€"Hyperallergic “This book is a gallery, a museum, a riotous romp of art that reverberates through personal and public history and will make your dwelling's shelves (and your mind) a little loonier.”â€"The Austin Chronicle  Read more About the Author Josh Frank is author of Fool the World: The Oral History of a Band Called Pixies, In Heaven Everything Is Fine, and, with Black Francis and Steven Appleby, the illustrated novel The Good Inn.

You may appreciate browsing this book while spent your free time. Theexpression in this word renders the reader seem to see and read this book again and still. There are some people in the world - people who grew up after an early 1970s renaissance of interest in the Marx Brothers, but before the Internet - whose interest in the Marx Brothers bordered on pathological, but couldn't be shared by more than a select few.I am one of those people. My Halloweens as Groucho and worn off-air VHS cassettes of The Cocoanuts and Animal Crackers - complete with commercials for early-1980s hair care products - sustained me and my own brothers through our childhood and adolescence.The author, Josh Frank, is also clearly one of those people. The picture of him, age 12, dressed as Harpo, simply confirms the early-formed, deep-rooted love that can be felt throughout this passion project.For those of us who have grown up in the years after the movies became readily available - after everything has become available - the knowledge that the book is closed on new Marx Brothers material has always been a source of disappointment. Folks like Noah Diamond and Josh Frank have opened that book again, and Frank has done the extra work of dragging it kicking and screaming into 2019.As you know from reading the synopsis, Giraffes on Horseback Salad was a project that Dalí worked on while visiting the Marx Brothers in 1937. MGM took one look at it, and quite rightly ran screaming in the other direction. Giraffes on Horseback Salad could never have been made as a movie. It would have been unfilmable then, and it would be unfilmable now, even with CGI trickery. Or, if it had been made, it would have been unwatchable - a pale shadow of Dalí's fever dream.It would never have occurred to anyone to release it as a graphic novel - even if the phrase "graphic novel" weren't still 50 years in the future. But Frank has not only discovered new, authentic Marxian material, he has presented it in a way that is distinctly modern: a sui generis fusion of 1930s surrealist art, Marx Brothers movie, and - astonishingly - graphic novel, complete with almost-superhero-style origin story. Dalí was a draftsman and painter, and the graphic novel is the right way to present this work - a procession of surrealist imagery, without any of the unnecessary verisimilitude that film would impose on it.And it works. The Marxian voices - with help from collaborator Heidecker (and others), and liberal thievery from their movies - come across loud and clear. I wish the pages were rendered by Dali, but that's not really practical, and Pertega successfully fuses surrealism and comic book whimsy. One can easily imagine an alternate version of this story from some of Neil Gaiman's collaborators - Dave McKean or Charlie Vess, for example.It's a remarkable book. I don't know whether it will reach beyond the intersection of people interested in graphic novels, the Marx Brothers, and surrealist art, but I'm in the middle of that particular Venn diagram, and I heartily recommend it for anyone else in here with me. The cover design of this book really gives the game away. Look at it and you’d think this was a ‘lost’ work by the Marx Brothers and Salvador Dali.It is not.While “the Marx Brothers” and “Salvador Dali” are prominent in white, the actual creators are much smaller and in a grey type (against black) that literally disappears if you are any distance from it. This had to be intentional.What you actually get when you buy this book is Josh Frank and Tim Heidecker’s work, illustrated by Manuela Pertega, based on a 4 page summary taken from Dali’s notebooks in 1937, and an additional 80 pages of Dali's notes and drawings.There is no "lost Marx Brothers' script" or "screenplay" written by Salvador Dali. (I think it is not accurate to claim there is).Just these handwritten notes and illustrations and four typed pages that summarize the concept.There is no dialogue, no song lyrics, and very little coherence in those four pages. “Giraffes on Horseback Salad” is a new, fictional work with pseudo-wise cracks by Groucho, all dialog and songs written by Josh Frank and Tim Heidecker.So buyer beware.This is a new workâ€"an interpretation of a film comedy as a graphic novelâ€"based on an idea/concept by Dali, for a proposed film to star the Marx Brothers.The only participating Marx Brother was Harpo, whom Dali adored. And the concept never went beyond one pitch meeting. "It'll never play," said Julius.Manuela Pertega’s work is competent and her coloring lush, but I personally find her likenesses to be the weakest part of her storytelling. No attempt, it seems to me, is made to render Groucho, Chico or Harpo’s faces with any fidelity to how they actually appear on film (or life).My opinion is that an accurate description of this book would doom sales. Frank & Heidecker are not names that will sell this book, the Marx Brothers and Dali are. To me this comes across as ‘false advertising.’If you believe that anyone living today can ‘create’ a new Marx Brother’s film, even in graphic novel format, you should be upfront that this is your ‘new’ creation.The information about this still-born project from the late 1930s is interesting and would’ve made a great magazine article or online post.However, if I came across a four page summary of a proposed novel by Hemingway, then wrote a 400 page book, would Quirkbooks sell my book as a newly discovered Hemingway?“Giraffes on Horseback Salad” is a very loosely-based adaptation of a scrap of an idea by a great artist who wanted to work on a project with a screen idol of his.Had the vast amount of invention by Frank and Heidecker been disclosed upfront, I doubt I would’ve bought it.
