Dumb Luck: The Art of Gary Baseman
Mucking up the pages of the New Yorker, the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Forbes, the Atlantic Monthly, Blab, and more, Gary Baseman has populated the finest publications with his inimitable brand of illustration Now Dumb Luck, presents the first complete collection of his work, spanning more than ten years. According to Baseman himself, his art inhabits "that muddy spot where the line between genius and stupidity has been smudged beyond recognition." Dark and dopey, hokey and heartbreaking, his world is populated with freaky folks, maimed bunnies, weird wiener dogs, and anthropomorphic ice-cream cones that yearn and burn just like we do. Baseman's particular genius lies in capturing those ridiculous and all-too-often appalling aspects of being human. Hilarious testimony to the mind of its creator, Dumb Luck is both an art manifesto and a raw celebration of idiocy..

Lots of recipes—some Mom made; some she'd never dare. Guaranteed. If there were even one word about Paris Hilton, this would go immediately to number one.

Murder at Stone's Throw

Marla Stone’s nine-acre island estate has sadly fallen into disrepair. Her twenty-four room French Normandy mansion, guesthouse, stables, cabanas and outbuildings are showing their age. Marla earns a paltry sum teaching cooking and birdsong identification classes in her home, and she’s having trouble maintaining the elegant way of life to which she had always been accustomed. Even Acumulada, her loyal maid of thirty years, has agreed to work without wages.

Marla’s financial salvation arrives in the form of Jack Trumpet, CEO of Conglomotron. He appears on her doorstep one day, asking her to co-host a lifestyle television show with his wife, Barbie Lee. Barbie Lee’s dearth of talent is only part of the problem. The real difficulties surface when she is discovered dead, facedown in a bowl of gazpacho at Marla’s dinner party.

Marla’s dinner guests are stranded overnight on the island. They each question who among them could be capable of murder. Who isn’t? With the bridge out, roads closed, phone lines down, and electricity out, the frightened guests must survive another night in the house … and another night with the killer.
