In this third edition of his comic book, each subject spanning one or two pages, Grant Snyder continues to express his thoughts through drawings and poetic expressions, as well as his failures to live a sober, sober life. He adds touches of realism and some humor.
The book was published by the Arab House of Sciences “Publishers” under the title “The Art of Living: Reflections on Mindfulness and Life.” These comic stories stimulate feelings of contemplation, empathy, and gratitude, and teach you how to ask questions, where to find answers, and how to find beauty in everything. Snyder’s phrases and illustrations inspire and encourage a new way of living. In his book, Snyder focuses on awareness, mindfulness, empathy, relaxation, and gratitude, topics that are more important now than ever. These haiku-like comics are an extension of the themes Snyder addressed in his first two books, The Shape of Thoughts and I’ll Judge You by Your Library, and are the perfect gift for those in need of reflection, solace, hope and a little extra self-care. Snyder’s words and illustrations inspire and encourage a new way of living.
Grant Snyder, an orthodontist by day, artist by night, has appeared in The Kansas City Star, The New York Times, The New Yorker, and The Best American Comics Anthology 2013. He lives in Wichita, Kansas, with his wife and five children.
