Description
Conventional wisdom states that cartooning and graphic novels exist in a golden age of creativity – popularity – and critical acceptance. But why? Today – the signal is stronger than ever – but so is the noise. New York Times – Vanity Fair – and Bookforum critic Ben Schwartz assembles the greatest lineup of comics critics the world has yet seen to testify on behalf of this increasingly vital medium. Best American Comics Writing is the first attempt to collate the best criticism to date of the graphic novel boom in a way that contextualizes and codifies one of the most important literary movements of the last 60 years. This collection begins in 2000 – the game changing year that Pantheon released the graphic novels Jimmy Corrigan and David Boring. Originally serialized as ‘alternative’ comics – they went on to confirm the critical and commercial viability of graphic literature. Via its various authors – this collection functions as a valuable readers’ guide for fans – academics – and librarians – tracing the current comics renaissance from its beginnings and creative growth to the cutting edge of today’s artists. This volume includes Daniel Clowes (Ghost World) in conversation with novelist Jonathan Lethem (Fortress of Solitude) – Chris Ware – Jonathan Franzen (The Corrections) – John Hodgman (The Daily Show – The Areas of My Expertise – The New York Times Book Review) – David Hajdu (The 10-Cent Plague) – Douglas Wolk (Publishers Weekly – author of the Eisner award-winning Rea
