Strange Creature

Strange Creature

This collection sees Michael Leunig at his fiery, passionate best-protesting the war in Iraq and Australia's current 'leaders.' Strange Creature is irreverent, iconoclastic, scathing, and-as always with Leunig-deeply perceptive. But even when he's ridiculing the enemy, he can't help being delightful. This volume is big, bold, and more colourful than ever-a kind of up-market scrapbook of humour and dissent. It includes newspaper headlines from relevant stories at the time, photos, and some exquisite, full-colour paintings. All in all, a new and slightly different look for the annual Leunig collection. About the Author Michael Leunig has been drawing and writing for Australian newspapers since 1965. He was born in Melbourne and now lives on a farm in north-eastern Victoria. His work has been widely published overseas, and has been adapted in Australia for television, theatre and radio.
