These are just some of the adjectives that have been applied to Faceless, the in-your-face, un-PC cartoon strip that has taken South Africa – and the World Wide Web – by storm. From kinky sex and dysfunctional families to misogyny, adultery and warring couples, nothing and no one is sacred in Bruce Sutherland’s contentious cartoons. Faceless never pulls any punches, expressing those sentiments you feel but never dare verbalise for fear of being judged ‘politically incorrect’.
Although Faceless amuses and entertains, its hard-core content is also bound to shock you out of your apathy. In this comic strip there are no holy cows – the comments and observations, and generally taking the Mickey out of people, are aimed at everyone. Whether you are sick and tired of living in an obsessively PC world or just want to laugh out loud at the absurdities of daily life, this book is for YOU!
About the Author - Bruce Sutherland
Bruce Sutherland spent 23 years in the corporate IT world, where he was a divisional executive for one of the biggest IT companies in South Africa and one of the original computer nerds. As an early adopter of the internet and its technologies, he built his first website in 1994 and set up his own joke site in 1996, which was featured in The Citizen.
In 2008, as a victim of restructuring, he found himself with a lot of time on his hands and finally knuckled down to something he’d contemplated doing for a long time: supplementing his joke site. And so Faceless was born in 2009, after many different characters, figures and styles were tried and discarded. As it gained a following, strips were spotted in the wild (behind toilet doors, on other websites, in emails sent on by friends and, more recently, in Playboy South Africa), and there was an increasing demand for a book. He self-published the first Faceless book in 2010.
Bruce lives on a game farm in the Cradle of Humankind, and makes knives by hand as a hobby.
Faceless - The First Book
The world has gone nuts – excessively politically correct, extremely
sensitive and missing its sense of humour. If we want to say what's on our
minds, tell a joke or make a scything comment, we run the risk of twisting
someone's knickers.
Well I've had enough.
Faceless is here to amuse, entertain and say what we all want to say (or
wish we had thought of saying). While it is not my intention to purposely
upset anyone, I have no doubt that someone will be grumpy by the end of the
book.
Nevertheless, I hope the rest of you will have a good laugh.
