Description
Sign of the Times is the latest collection of incomparable sketches of contemporary and political life by the current British Cartoonist of the Year, culled from his award-winning leader-page cartoons in The Times. Bristling with mischief and political savvy, Sign of the Times subjects the world and its leaders to the most sophisticated of lampoonings.

The Times 'This is a brilliant collection of insight, thought provoking and razor-sharp sketches of contemporary and political life, all laced with wicked satire.' Choice
