A sharp wit slices through the political landscape of Australia in The Jungle Series, a definitive collection of biting cartoons from the pen of Larry Pickering, widely regarded as Australia's foremost political cartoonist. This anthology gathers his most hilariously penetrating works into a single volume, presenting a savage yet comic portrait of the politicians, powerbrokers, and personalities who shaped a nation — rendered with the fearless, irreverent precision that made Pickering a household name. Pickering's art sits firmly in the great tradition of political caricature, where the pen is wielded as both sword and punchline, exposing the absurdities of power through exaggeration and wit. The Jungle Series stands as a significant document of Australian political culture, illustrating how cartooning can simultaneously provoke, entertain, and hold authority to account. For those who remember the era and those discovering it anew, this collection leaves one wondering — just how much has the jungle really changed?
