- Madman's_Drum abstract "Madman's Drum is the second wordless novel by American artist Lynd Ward (1905–1985), published in 1930. In 118 images, it tells the story of a slave trader who murders an African and steals the victim's demon-faced drum, and the tragic consequences it has for his family.The book was executed in wood engravings, and was the second of Ward's six wordless novels, after 1929's Gods' Man. Ward was more ambitious with his second work in the medium, and created more individuated characters, a more complicated plot, and a more explicit outrage at social injustice than in the first book. He used a finer degree of detail in the artwork using a wider variety of carving tools. and was expressive in his use of symbolism and exaggerated emotional facial expressions.The book was well received upon release, and the success of Ward's first two wordless novels encouraged publishers to publish more books in the genre. In 1943 psychologist Henry Murray used two images in his Thematic Apperception Test of personality traits. The book is considered less successfully executed than the first, a slump Ward overcame by streamlining his work in his next wordless novel, Wild Pilgrimage (1932).".
