Everyday Devils and Angels

by Michael Leunig

'There was once a man who could no longer believe things that were said. All he could trust was sighing, sobbing, swearing, screaming and singing. If you asked him why he no longer believed, he would sigh... He would sob... He would scream and swear. And then he would start to sing like a bird.'

Like all Leunig this collection is gorgeous, and at the same time a cutting commentary of society. A few of the picture tales are a bit dated but the majority are still as relevant today as the day they came into being through the Michael Medium........
