In his hilarious and poignant memoir, "What So Funny?", cartoonist James Kochalka takes readers on a journey through his life as an artist, husband, and father. With his trademark wit and charm, Kochalka shares his experiences with the absurdities of life, from the mundane to the profound.
The Artist's Life
Kochalka begins his memoir by recounting his early days as a struggling artist. He describes the challenges of making a living from his art, the insecurities of being a creative person, and the joy of finally finding success. Throughout his journey, Kochalka's wry sense of humor shines through, as he pokes fun at the pretensions of the art world and the ridiculousness of his own artistic endeavors.
Domestic Bliss and Disaster
In addition to his career as an artist, Kochalka also writes about his personal life. He shares his experiences of falling in love, getting married, and becoming a father. With his trademark honesty and vulnerability, Kochalka explores the challenges and rewards of family life. He writes about the joys of raising children, the frustrations of dealing with in-laws, and the complexities of marriage.
The Absurdities of Life
Throughout his memoir, Kochalka returns again and again to the theme of absurdity. He finds humor in the most mundane of situations, from the ridiculousness of his own artistic creations to the absurdity of the human condition. Kochalka's ability to find humor in the face of life's challenges is both inspiring and infectious.
"What So Funny?" is a delightful and thought-provoking memoir that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with the absurdities of life. With his wit, honesty, and charm, James Kochalka reminds us that even in the darkest of times, there is always something to laugh about.
