The Book of Bunny Suicides

Andy Riley


Purchase this title at B&N

This is the kind of book that was popular in the eighties and seems to have faded into obscurity since-- one guy makes a bunch of silly drawings, which then get released in a very short, rather wide book (Garfield and Far Side comics were often released in the same manner), but the artist hasn't got the benefit of a big syndicated strip in a newspaper. 101 Uses for a Dead Cat is probably the most popular of them ever.

Well, move over, lifeless felines, because So Graham Norton writer Andy Riley is here with The Book of Bunny Suicides. And it is hysterical. There were some that actually had me unable to breathe for a few seconds. Not that they're all that brilliant, or the book would have to come with a warning label, but there's more than enough funny here to justify the purchase price. Andy Riley is a very, very sick individual, and he has allowed one particular facet of his illness to be released upon the unsuspecting masses. Take advantage.
