Plot Summary
Caricature contains nine short stories from Clowes's Eightball comic book series. These stories are less stylized and more naturalistic than the stories contained in some of Clowes's other short-story collections (particularly Orgy Bound and Lout Rampage!), but some of them are still pretty harsh in terms of subject matter. However, fans of Ghost World should appreciate them.
