This is the second fan letter I have written in my whole life. The
other one was to Hopalong Cassidy, when I had a great crush on him
at about six years old. But I did want to let you know how very
much both my husband and I have enjoyed "Pickles" from the very
first strip. Would you please consider putting a collection
together in book form?" --Lois F. in Nevada
As its loyal fans will gladly tell you, "Pickles" has been a
zinger-filled, laugh-out-loud gem since its debut in 1990. Since
then, it has steadily climbed in popularity, and today appears in
over 400 newspapers worldwide.
"Still Pickled After All These Years" collects strips from this
sweet intergenerational comic that alternates point of view between
an older married couple, a 30-something married couple, and their
son. The strip centers on Earl and Opal Pickles, who have been
married over 50 years but inject plenty of spunk and insight into
everything they do. Whether they're taking a wry but sympathetic
glance at their divorced daughter, Sylvia, laughing at their
faithful but feckless canine, Roscoe, marveling at their
dictatorial feline, Muffin, or just commenting on the little things
in life, Earl and Opal's good-natured wit and dry humor is
brilliantly on target.
"Pickles" is about growing old and keeping your sense of humor
but never forgetting what it's like to be a child. The strip's
inaugural AMP collection, "Still Pickled After All These Years,"
encapsulates the importance of staying close to those who bring you
the most joy and reminds everyone about the incalculable value of
the unconditional love of pets, family, and friends.
