Meeting of May 10:  The Cartoons of Tom Gauld

Looking forward to our May 10th meeting!

 The Cartoons of Tom Gauld: SF, fantasy, literature, and commentary. And books.  

Tom Gauld (born 1976) is an astonishingly prolific Scottish cartoonist. His cartoons cover a wide range: science, science fiction, fantasy, role playing games, classic literature, politics, and more. Gauld happily combines different genres in a single cartoon. Vampire tropes – and modern politics. Classic literature – and science fiction. Fantasy – and the reality of television. Not only does Gauld love books – he also loves booklovers.

He publishes in major newspapers and magazines including The New Scientist, The Guardian, The New York Times, The New Yorker, and more. His work has been collected in more than 20 books.

One of Gauld’s best-known cartoons, showing the eternal struggle between science and science fiction.
