A Cartoon Marriage Made On the Pages of The New Yorker

What do two married cartoonists for /The New Yorker/ do for fun? Write and draw stories about their life together and collect a number of their strips as evidence, apparently. Both Donnelly and Maslin are regular contributors to /The New Yorker/, and their many strips on life, marriage, children, and relationships have probably been cut out and posted on refrigerators, bulletin boards, and office and cube walls for years. To make this a more fun collection than others, together they have done introductory new strips, expressing the elements of their lives together (including a 4-page "how we met" sequence) that relates to the chapter at hand. From "I Do?" to "Ex-Whatevers", /Cartoon Marriage/ should hit almost everyone's funny bone somewhere.
