Solutions and Other Problems

by Allie Brosh

*THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*


For the first time in seven years, Allie Brosh, the creator of the immensely popular blog 'Hyperbole and a Half' and #1 New York Times bestselling author, returns with her new collection.

Solutions and Other Problems includes humorous stories from Allie Brosh's childhood; the adventures of her very bad animals; merciless dissection of her own character flaws; incisive essays on grief, loneliness, and powerlessness; as well as reflections on the absurdity of modern life.

This full-colour, beautifully illustrated edition features all-new material with more than 1,600 pieces of art. Solutions and Other Problems marks the return of a beloved American humourist who has "the observational skills of a scientist, the creativity of an artist, and the wit of a comedian" (Bill Gates).

Praise for Allie Brosh's Hyperbole and a Half:

'A hilarious collection' Mashable

'Will certainly help you, should you perhaps decide to indulge in a spot of "self-gifting" in this instance, survive Christmas with your more crazed relatives' Rachel Cooke, Observer

'It's impossible not to warm to cartoonist and blogger Allie. If she doesn't get to you with her funny childhood anecdotes (eating an entire birthday cake) then her honest reflections on depression will' Grazia

I love Allie. Proud long time fan - waaaay back on the blogger days. It helped me feel so seen with her work about mental illness and everyone commenting, and supporting her. She's been through so much stuff in the last few years. This book goes deeper and realer with how bad things can get. But is just as funny. I really hope things get better for her.
