Roger

by Jeremy Gerlis, Alan Capel, Tim Cordell

Enter the extraordinarily ordinary world of a half-dressed man. In the world of Roger , silence speaks volumes, whether in the workplace, at leisure, or on his travels. In this debut collection of captionless cartoons, we share in the mundane, deadpan adventures of an expressionless, wordless, harmless man, whose full-on, half-dressed presence only the reader seems to notice. Tied to the workplace, but freed from the shackles of his lower garments, Roger continues to go about his business in his own unassuming and bemused fashion. Who is he? What is he thinking? Where are his pants? This textless, pantsless book opens a window on to Roger's life at work and promises to stand out from the crowd. As Roger might say, if only he spoke?bring it up, bring it on, bring it out.

[John Naylor · Rating 1 out of 5]

A man who works in an office with his penis hanging out or operating machinery. It might be amusing to some people but it just left me thinking "Why?"

This is an illustration only book and one that might work as a bad present to someone you hate. It was repetitive and the humour didn't last beyond the first few pages.

A fun adult picture book that provides a few chuckles.

Well, if you like wordless illustrations of a trouserless man in an office, you'll probably like this... I don't think I could see the cover clearly or read the description when I got this Kindle book, because I wouldn't have ordered it otherwise. Good thing it was free!

One of the greatest voyeur books of all time! How I would love to meet the chap who inspired this book... At arms length of course!
