Tom Gauld is always funny, but he's funny in a way that makes you feel smarter. Which is especially useful when he's being funny about science -- NEIL GAIMAN Gauld is my favourite hyper-minimalist brainiac cartoonist, and Department Of Mind-Blowing Theories is my favourite of his collections so far -- WILLIAM GIBSON His work is solace, comfort, guilty pleasure, joy, thrill, pleasure palace . . . In times such as these, someone who can make you forget your troubles, who can make you laugh out loud . . . falls into the national treasure category . . .

Gauld finds humour and hope - as well as coffee and doughnuts - in his portrait of a fading utopia * * Guardian * * Each single-page piece is a clever, funny, slightly bonkers riff on a literary theme . . . Sublime * * The Times * * A collection of brilliantly off-the-wall cartoons. Ever wondered what War and Peace clickbait looks like? Or Machiavelli's month planner? Gauld can help * * Daily Mail on BAKING WITH KAFKA * * Tom Gauld might just be the Edward Gorey of our time, channelling his wry humour and macabre aesthetic through exquisite black-and-white illustrations -- MARIA POPOVA Tom Gauld's deceptively simple comics hold a mirror to human hypocrisies * * Huffington Post * * One of the best cartoonists around! * * BoingBoing * *
