Caldecott Medalist Allen Say presents a stunning graphic novel
chronicling his journey as an artist during WWII, when he
apprenticed under Noro Shinpei, Japan's premier cartoonist
DRAWING FROM MEMORY is Allen Say's own story of his path to
becoming the renowned artist he is today. Shunned by his father,
who didn't understand his son's artistic leanings, Allen was
embraced by Noro Shinpei, Japan's leading cartoonist and the man he
came to love as his "spiritual father." As WWII raged, Allen was
further inspired to consider questions of his own heritage and the
motivations of those around him. He worked hard in rigorous drawing
classes, studied, trained--and ultimately came to understand who he
really is.
Part memoir, part graphic novel, part narrative history, DRAWING
FROM MEMORY presents a complex look at the real-life relationship
between a mentor and his student. With watercolor paintings,
original cartoons, vintage photographs, and maps, Allen Say has
created a book that will inspire the artist in all of us.
