Little, Brown Book Group Ltd. is publishing two new titles by illustrator Gerald Scarfe, best known to Pink Floyd fans for his work on “The Wall.”

“Long Drawn Out Trip” was released in September. It’s a 320-page memoir of the artist’s life the publisher describes as “a very personal, wickedly funny and caustically insightful account of an artist’s life at the forefront of contemporary culture and society.”

The more substantial “Scarfe: 60 Years of Being Rude” will be published Nov. 9 in three editions: A £1,200 limited “Artist’s Edition”; a £500 limited “Deluxe Edition”; and an unlimited standard edition for £150.

The artist’s edition is limited to 26 copies signed and lettered A-Z, presented in a cloth-covered, soft-lined presentation box with design elements by Scarfe. It includes a limited edition print signed by the artist, and an exclusive original drawing on high-quality cartridge paper.

Edition ‘A’ is being auctioned off as part of the sale of Scarfe’s artwork at Sotheby’s this month. The auction will benefit Parkinson’s UK.

The deluxe edition is limited to 200 numbered copies, and features a cloth-covered, soft-lined presentation box with design elements by Scarfe and includes a limited edition print signed by the artist.

The special editions of “Scarfe: 60 Years of Being Rude” are available for purchase at www.scarfebook.com. The standard edition and “Long Drawn Out Trip” are available for purchase from online and bricks-and-mortar stores everywhere.
