Did You Get It? The Year of Inside Jokes and Season-Long Arcs
On Calvin and Hobbes and the Trouble with Nostalgia
Extremely well written,AJA. Loved the narrative arc,( if I may use such a term). Those short sentences that bring a lump to the throat and mist the eyes....when WHAM! You hit us with the turn around! ( A classic case of havingthe tables turned and realising one is immersed in the text as the reader vs.the author who then gives his 'solution' -that bit about the emotional journey ...and not ideas...the object or nostalgia itself. Terrific! Just wanted to tell you that you made my dull day sparkle with hope again. As an aside- i wish it should have ended quickly then, (the second strip about you bet and the device you use to illustrate seem a tad light compared to the mastery of your previous arguments).(...almost like you're trying to complete the articles stet 1000 words). But never mind my subjective opinions after a fast read on an ipad...I thank you for a great whiff of oxygen to a brain tired of fb drivel and Unclear words. Todarabah! Perhaps you can direct me to more of your writing....?
