“All the Art That’s Fit to Print (And Some That Wasn’t): Inside The New York Times Op-Ed Page”—a sly book by award-winning, 30-year Times art director & writer Jerelle Kraus—will tickle your intellectual funny bone. Kraus, whose 13-year tenure on volatile Op-Ed far exceeds that of any editor, quit her dream job to write this Columbia University Press book. The Washington Post describes it as “gutsy, gossipy, and gorgeous,” while Bill Maher calls it “politically incorrect and hilarious.” The S.F. Chronicle says Kraus “writes like a dream.”

Its lavish format weighs 3 lbs, opens to half a yard wide & boasts such notable artists as Steinberg, Sempé, Spiegelman, Sendak, Feiffer, Glaser, Gorey, Steadman, Rivers, Trudeau, & Warhol. See why SLATE wants you to “give this wonderful book to all your friends,” and Fine Books & Collections declares it “a splendid work to grace the most discriminating coffee table."

As stunning as the art is the author’s riveting recounting of the self-revelatory, Freudian excuses given by high-ranking editors each time they killed one of these wondrous works. According to History Wire: “Her tale of surviving 3 hours alone with Nixon is worth the price.”
