The author is a well-known graphic designer who has produced some of the most recognized and unusual book jackets in contemporary fiction (i.e. Jurassic Park). His work is said to transform a book from a medium for written words to a thing in itself, an 'object of art, as well as literature.' In his own book, Kidd continues to blur the line between art and words. The Cheese Monkeys follows an art student through the first year of state university. Anyone who has endured a freshman year at any college will identify and laugh out loud at his encounters with students, faculty, and bureaucracy. It is deep and funny. Some say it is an argument for a certain philosophical interpretation of graphic art. (Message over Form?) Of course, that discussion is both over my head, and beyond any field of study I ever endured. I just think it is a fantastic, fascinating look into academia, art, and the off-beat people usually found in both. Many reviewers don't care for the spiraling, out-of-control ending. I actually think it might be central to the book. Anyone who has pulled an 'all-nighter' (or two) may identify with swirl of real, and perhaps imagined, events leading to the crash ending. The build-up of tensions throughout the book are not unlike the high-intensity days and weeks of cramming and sleepless nights before the end of the term - sometimes ending well, sometimes not, but almost always filled with self-induced melodrama, angst, and a feeling that things will never be 'normal' again. (Or maybe I just spent too long in school ;)) I know after reading this book, I will never look at commercial art or advertising images the same way ever again!

A story about first loves and ties that bind. After public humiliation beautiful Katie McKenna has deteremined that she will lead a life of safety - even in matters of love. She takes the stance that practical, steady, depedable love is better than love that makes the heart skip a beat. Little does she know that her predicatable, dependable, bland life is about to be turned on its head when her handsome ex-boyfriend dances back into her life. She had packed away the passion of her youth into a box in the back of heart and moved into a cookie cutter life and a love-less engagement made out of the practicallity of steadiness and dependability. All the while justifying that she was holding true to "love is a choice" biblical standard. Her fiance is Dexter - a graduate of MIT. He is bland and boring - and worse yet unkind and unforgiving. Luc - the dashing ex is now a multimillionaire and he has his eyes set on making things right with Katie. This book is a sweet story of facing past mistakes and humiliation and learning what forgiveness and love are. It is about learning not to be defined by the things that happen in our lives but defining our lives by those beliefs we hold dear - operating in Christ. The only thing that bothered me - and this may seem silly - is the cover. I could not stand the fact that in the book Katie is a red-haired, green-eyed irish girl yet the book cover shows a brunette dark-eyed lady. Thank you B&B Communications for this review copy.
