The hotel stories explore the erotic quality of miniature shampoo containers, the pleasures of life between international time zones, the dangers of glossy magazines, and the hotel lobby as a breeding ground for petty crime. The agriculture stories detail the little-known practice of twice-killing meat, the cultivation and sale of exotic produce, the whitewashing of trees, and the arrangement of fruit as an art form. With Ben Katchor’s signature style and wit, the stories in Hotel and Farm weave together the joys and woes of both industries into one unprecedented and unerring graphic novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e For an updated release schedule, please reference \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/prhcomics.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewww.prhcomics.com\/\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr\u003eNote:  Release dates may change. \u003cspan style=\"color: #ae1f23;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCover art on Pre-Order is not final \u0026amp; is subject to change.
