Description: "Gerard Hoffnung's genius was to communicate his richly comic vision of the world through words and drawings and music. His humour was gentle, never unkind, yet it was nonetheless powerful. Sadly, he died young, at the age of 34, but his brilliant work continues to win new admirers. In this biography of her husband, Annetta Hoffnung vividly conveys his warm, all-pervading comic spirit, and her delightful text is enhanced by dozens of drawings, letters and photographs."--Jacket.
Notes: Includes index.
