Berman's drawings have accented Silver Jews lyric sheets, enlivened autograph sessions and eventually provoked more than one request for a collection of the same. This accounts for The Portable February, a handsomely-appointed hardcover compendium of the Berman visual sensibility. Running the gamut from faux-political to faux-New Yorker, Berman's cartoons incorporate strains of high comedy and low comedy, wistful Americana, contemporary art, dream visions and a visual analog to the semi-penetrable personal allusions that have comprised his writing over the years.
