Humor – Letters from Athens

More Easter Nonsense

In homage to Glen Baxter

Born in Leeds in 1944, Glen Baxter is an English draughtsman and artist, known for his absurdist drawings and a general ambience of literary nonsense.

I have always loved his insane and incongruous sense of humour and his old-fashioned drawing style, and own a few of his books.

Here is a sample, for those who have survived the excesses of the day and are in need of a laugh.

Halloween is not really a thing in Greece but, as it amuses children—and some adults presumably— Halloween parties do take place, but no trick or treating as such. However, as put off as I am by the usual overdose of merch etc, I admit I do love some of the jokes and cartoons.
