Critical Theorists #5 : So Bourgeois!
R230.00 – R400.00
Imagine living in a world where an extra toe on a newborn will automatically result in the death of the baby, a pig with more hair than normal will be put down, and corn kernels that are not in perfectly formed rows will necessitate burning an entire field. Luckily, this world does not exist in Keyser Söze and the Great Mole Rat.
In this compelling addition to an already astounding series, The Critical Theorists meet with the the founder of Mazdakism, explore the rule of communal possessions, brush shoulders with a Red Army and investigate a strange artefact which was imparted by the gods.
Needless to say, the story is a network of intrigue and adventure, all of which are handled with the author’s skillful touch, which is good news to all readers who love soundly-written and well-illustrated historical fiction.
A body of work crowded with as much intellect as repartee, would be difficult to find.
Description
We only print 150 of each card in this range, which consists of 10 individual illustrations. Each Card comes with an embossed and numbered artist’s stamp, as well as a signed artist’s certificate.
The Critical Theorists Range features selected excerpts from the once-off graphic novel Keyser Soze and the Great Mole Rat. Questioning the role of philosophy on the course of history, these prints offer a tongue-in-cheek look on the effect that European and American Superpowers have had on the world.
Laced with deadly humor, each piece reminds that with our less than perfect track record, the best thing we as a human race can do would be to not take ourselves too seriously.
