Acclaimed cartoonist Chris Ware reveals the outtakes of his genius
in these intimate, imaginative, and whimsical sketches collected
from the years during which he completed his award-winning graphic
novel "Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth "(Pantheon). His
novel not only won the "Manchester Guardian" First Novel prize in
2001 but it has sold over 100,000 copies. This book is as much a
companion volume to Jimmy Corrigan --one of the great crossover
success stories-- as a tremendous art collection from of one of
America's most interesting and popular graphic artist.
Chris Ware has a passion for drawing that is surprisingly
wide-ranging in style and subject. This book surprises the reader
on every page with its sense of spontaneous vision. Architectural
drawings from Chicago and interplanetary robot comics collide with
cruelly doodled human figures and quietly troubling studies of the
still life. A must for people with a passion for modern design and
old-fashioned style.
