    Hand Drying in America and Other Stories HC (2013 Pantheon Books) 1-1ST

    1st printing. By Ben Katchor. Ben Katchor, a master at twisting mundane commodities into surreal objects of social significance, now takes on the many ways our property influences and reflects cultural values. Here are window-ledge pillows designed expressly for people-watching and a forest of artificial trees for sufferers of hay fever. With cutting wit Katchor reveals a world similar to our own - lives are defined by possessions, consumerism is a kind of spirituality - but also slightly, fabulously askew. Hardcover, 11-in. x 12-in., 160 pages, B&W. Cover price $29.95.
