Preorder [10/6/26] Signed Edition: The Two Saddest Kitchens: A Comics Conversation [Signed Edition]

The kitchen is the "heart of the home," or at least it's supposed to be. But even when the countertops look tidy, there's often madness lurking at the back of the refrigerator . . .

When celebrated New Yorker cartoonists Roz Chast and Jason Adam Katzenstein admitted to each other that their kitchens were far from shiny beacons of homemaking, they knew they couldn't be the only ones who left the dishes to soak for a little too long.

In The Two Saddest Kitchens, Roz and Jason combine their hilarious cartoon sensibilities to take stock of what's really going on in our kitchens-from Tupperware Drawer Tetris to the cabinet over the fridge where the forgotten yard-sale ice bucket and stale marshmallows go to die-filling each laugh-out-loud page with a new perspective on optimizing our kitchens and our cooking skills as they ponder the fancy utensils that will never be used, the recipes that will never be followed, and the people they will never be.

If you've ever found yourself hungrily wandering into the kitchen only to find too-ripe-even-for-banana-bread bananas and expired cheese, rest assured that Roz and Jason have already been there too-and this book is for you.
