Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far on Foot
Now a major motion picture directed by Gus Van Sant and starring Joaquin Phoenix, Jonah Hill, and Rooney Mara Featuring more than 60 of Callahan's original cartoons “When people laugh like hell and then say, ‘That’s not funny,’ you can be pretty sure they’re talking about John Callahan.”— P.J. O’Rourke In 1972, at the age of 21, John Callahan was involved in a car crash that severed his spine and made him a quadriplegic. A heavy drinker since the age of 12 (alcohol had played a role in his crash), the accident could have been the beginning of a downward spiral. Instead, it sparked a personal transformation. After extensive physical therapy, he was eventually able to grasp a p...
The Best of Callahan
“John is the funniest man on four wheels.” –ROBIN WILLIAMS “Screw the critics. I love Callahan. His cartoons are like tongue-kissing your grandma. If it’s so bad, why does it feel so good?” –DAVE ATTELL, Writer and host of Comedy Central’s Insomniac with Dave Attell From the warped mind of one of America’s most twisted cartoonists comes The Best of Callahan–a wildly satirical, wickedly funny collection of favorite cartoons, of fans and author alike. Warning: This book is not for the timid, the easily offended, the politically correct, or your grandparents. It’s for people who like their humor dark . . . about issues Mom and Dad told us were impolite to talk about in public. If you find offense, you shouldn’t have been looking! We’re not the boss of you. . . .
A Man You Could Love
Ranging from the forests of the Pacific Northwest to the power corridors of Washington, D.C., this novel chronicles the story of a crusading politician and the political coming-of-age and loss of innocence of the baby boomers, taking place from the 1960s through the disputed 2000 presidential election.
Will the Real John Callahan Please Stand Up?
In this definitive quasi-memoir, John Callahan comes squeaky clean about himself. Victim of an automobile accident at age twenty-one that left him a quadriplegic, he tells it like it was and like it is and like it's probably good that it won't be. There are vignettes - full of disarming frankness, bile, and (can you believe it?) sensitivity; there are, of course, cartoons, some never before publishable (guess why); and there are letters, some heart-to-heart, some knife-to-throat, that he shares shamelessly. You could hate John Callahan, but you could end up loving him too.
Get Down!
There is absolutely nothing funny about a quadriplegic in a wheel chair. Unless, of course, that person is John Callahan. For nearly a decade this politically incorrect, brutally frank, and wickedly hilarious cartoonist has shocked America with his own special brand of dark, edgy humor. In the world of John Callahan, nothing is sacred, nothing is taboo, and nothing is funnier!

Flying Home
These 13 stories by the author of The Invisible Man "approach the elegance of Chekhov" (Washington Post) and provide "early explorations of (Ellison's) lifelong fascination with the 'complex fate' and 'beautiful absurdity' of American identity" (John Callahan). First serial to The New Yorker. NPR sponsorship.
Freaks of Nature
Callahan's appeal is broad and national, and his following keeps growing. Now, in this latest collection of twisted and refreshingly politically incorrect catoons, Callahan is at his most uproarious. Just think of what he'll do with O.J., lawyers, cat lovers, and others in Freaks of Nature.
