In the introduction to The Rejection Collection: Volume 1, cartoonist Matthew Diffee explains that every week the New Yorker rejects several hundred cartoon submissions sent in by regularly published artists. To rescue the gems lost in the process, Diffee asked his friends and colleagues to send him their favorite rejected cartoons; from those, he selected the most delightfully silly, weird, dark, risqué, or offensive, and assembled them in these books. So, set aside your better judgment, and prepare to laugh at these never-before-published cartoons from illustrious New Yorker contributors. As an added bonus, Diffee includes zany questionnaires completed by each featured cartoonist as a bit of insight into the slightly twisted psyches of these brilliantly funny artists. What fun!
