The Art of McSweeney's

This book showcases both the extraordinary beauty and fascinating history of McSweeney's productions including their Quarterly Journal, novels and magazines The Believer and Wholpin. Besides juicy anecdotes, hundreds of images from napkin sketches to final covers have been included to illustrate their innovative methods and styles, complemented by several interviews with participating designers, artists and illustrators. The result is a (hopefully) dazzling book by the people who have turned books into visually and intellectually stimulating works of art.

Now, I tried to buy this book several months ago but the publication date kept on getting pushed back, needless to say I am now really excited to announce that it has finally been released and will be in my possession in the near future!
