In these nine beautifully illustrated stories, Joe Ollmann peers into the cracks of everyday life, finding inspiration in those slightly uncomfortable moments that make life… well… interesting. Influenced by a variety of artists such as Ben Katchor, Charles Schulz, Ralph Steadman and Edward Gorey, Ollmann draws the inhabitants of his world with remarkable craft and an eye for detail, making each character unforgettable. Chewing on Tinfoil is storytelling at its best: highly visual, understated yet wrapped in imagination, and filled with the truth and humour of the human condition.
