A propos de cet article

Author: Ware, Chris Publisher: Hamish Hamilton 2004 Description: 1/1 UK Guest-editing Dave Eggers's literary journal, cartoonist Ware has assembled a beautifully designed anthology of contemporary art comics, with a few vintage treats thrown in, including an excerpt from "Obadiah Oldbuck"an 1842 publication that's arguably the first American comic book "and a series of very rough sketches by Charles Schulz. A few pieces have recently been published elsewhere (including excerpts from Mark Beyer's loopy, design-heavy Amy and Jordan and Joe Sacco's comics essay on Sarajevo, The Fixer), but the book is a superb introduction to the best American cartoonists working today. Ware has included work by artists with an impressively varied range of visual styles and narrative techniques. And Ware's own contribution is brilliant: the book's cover unfolds into a gigantic "comics supplement" of his bitter little cartoons, with extra, tiny comic books by Ron Reg Jr. and John Porcellino tucked into its folds. Issue 13 of McSweeney's Quarterly Concern. With 250 lithographic plates in approx 3732 individual pictures. McSweeney s is an independent nonprofit publishing company based in San Francisco. McSweeney’s’ Quarterly Concern began in 1998 as a literary journal that published only works rejected by other magazines. That rule was soon abandoned, and since then McSweeney s has attracted some of the finest writers in the world, from George Saunders and Lydia Davis, to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and David Foster Wallace. At the same time, the journal continues to be a major home for new and unpublished writers; committed to publishing exciting fiction regardless of pedigree.Each issue is completely redesigned, a unique work of art. Some issues are hardcovers, some are paperbacks, one issue came in a box shaped like a sweaty human head, one was disguised as a bag of party balloons, one looked like a pile of junk mail. Condition: Fine condition. Size: 240 x 180 mm.…
