This is a full book and not just the cover for fun and giggles!
In The Stray Shopping Carts of Eastern North America author Julian Montague has created an elaborate classification system of abandoned shopping carts, accompanied by photographic documentation of actual stray cart sightings. These sightings include bucolically littered locations such as the Niagara River Gorge (where many a cart has been pushed to its untimely death) and mundane settings that look suspiciously like a suburb near you.
Working in the naturalist’s tradition, the photographs depict the diversity of the phenomenon and carry a surprising emotional charge; readers inevitably begin to see these carts as human, at times poignant in their abandoned, decrepit state, hilariously incapacitated, or ingeniously co-opted. The result is at once rigorous and absurd, enabling the layperson to identify and classify their own cart spottings based on the situation in which they were found.

Reminds me of a documentary I saw (can’t remember the name) about some homeless guys in Canada that use shopping carts as high speed vehicles.

Damn I had no idea Bubbles was an author. I assumed he’d have written a Canadian guide tho.

As you can see at the bottom, Julian is the author.

That’s only because Bubbles may or may not know how to read and write.
