This week our intrepid critics take a look at literary cartoons.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well-meaning English teachers have assigned classic plays and novels to teenaged students for generations. The archaic language and stilted social conventions, however, alienate all but the hardiest of readers. Little is remembered but a distilled &#8220;Cliff Notes&#8221; impression of the story.<\/p>\n<p>Cartoonists, of course, find these hoary literary chestnuts irresistible for skewering. They fasten on to that one climactic element, often wildly misremembered, that survives in the collective consciousness. Jack Ziegler shrewdly focuses on the rain-drenched wanderings of the protagonist in Emily Bront\u00eb&#8217;s Wuthering Heights. He captures both the tortured musings of the complicated antihero and the book&#8217;s slogging pace.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC44205\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5347\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/CC44205_Ziegler.jpg\" alt=\"literary cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/CC44205_Ziegler.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/CC44205_Ziegler-244x300.jpg 244w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/CC44205_Ziegler-768x945.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"smfont\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC44205\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Only the most persistent of us have waded through all seven volumes of Proust&#8217;s Remembrance of Things Past. There is one element that universally survives this opus: the petite madeleine. This small cookie has launched thousands of earnest essays and late-night debates about the evocation of memory. Almost as well-known was the author&#8217;s penchant for writing in bed due to his frail health. Former New Yorker cartoon editor Lee Lorenz weaves both biographical threads into his scene in which the sensitive memoirist gets rough treatment at the hands of a no-nonsense hospitality worker.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC33881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5352\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/33881_Lorenz.jpg\" alt=\"literary cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/33881_Lorenz.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/33881_Lorenz-280x300.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/33881_Lorenz-768x823.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"smfont\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC33881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A common cartooning device involves updating a well-known historical setting with a modern conundrum. Kaamran Hafeez deploys this anachronistic approach with the swashbuckling heroes from Alexandre Dumas&#8217; Three Musketeers.
