So here's my first entry for @batmanisagatewaydrug's book bingo (summer reading challenge edition)! The book in question is The Luck Of The Draw by Fougasse, and it's fulfilling the squares of published before 1950, graphic novel, comic book or manga and reread a childhood favourite.
I feel like I'm stretching the definition of childhood a little, as I'm pretty sure I got this book when I was about fourteen or so, but I think it probably still counts. I also feel like while it definitely fulfills the spirit of graphic novel etc, in that it's a book of newspaper comics from Punch, and is a book with pictures in, I'm not sure that it's technically a graphic novel, comic book or a manga. It was published in 1936 though, which was certainly before 1950 the last time I checked, so at least there's that.
With that bit of rules lawyering out of the way, let me talk about the book! So as I said, the luck of the draw is a book of newspaper comics from Punch first published in 1936. The comics are about a bunch of different things, but I'd say the two main topics are probably driving/cars and cricket. There's also no overt like bigotry , which is obviously a big win. I chose to read this one first because I knew I could get it knocked out in like an hour, which I figured would start me off on the right foot :)
Would I recommend this book?
If it's there, you have immediate access to it and you're looking for something to read, sure. If you'd have to go to like any time, effort or money, not so much. Unless you really want a glimpse into 20s/30s British newspaper comics. It's a perfectly nice book, and it's a quick read, but it is also telling jokes from almost a hundred years ago, and even though none of jokes have aged particularly offensively or anything, a lot of them just aren't particularly funny because I'm missing the cultural context for them. (Though, having said that, I actually have no idea if they would have been funny at the time lol) There are jokes that are still good, but I found them to be much more sensible chuckle than full on belly laugh. So yeah, if you're on holiday or something and there's a copy at wherever you're staying and you read it, you probably won't regret it, and it is genuinely interesting to like get a glimpse into the past like that.
