The Graphic Canon of Crime & Mystery Vol 2: From Salome to Edgar Allan Poe to Silence of the Lambs - Softcover
Reseña del editor
The latest volume in Russ Kick's New York Times best-selling series retells classic crime fiction in full-color visual comix splendor.
"Easily the most ambitious and successfully realized literary project in recent memory." --NPR
"A treasure trove for literary comics fans." --WIRED
Here are Teddy Goldenberg's dense, murky treatment of Dashiell Hammett's "The Road Home," often considered the first hardboiled detective story ever published. Shawn Cheng renders the first serial-killer story, the so-called fairy tale "Bluebeard" by Charles Perrault. Landis Blair reimagines The Trial as a choose-your-own-adventure story that you cannot win, and Ted Rall retells an O. Henry story about a petty criminal who just can't get arrested. Plus 28 other contributors using a wide range of illustrative styles.
As with previous volumes in the Graphic Canon series, the illustrations run the full gamut of media and techniques, and artistic interpretations range from verbatim literalism to metaphorical extensions to surrealism and abstraction. The common theme, tracing the origins and standout texts of the morbid and mysterious, unites these multifarious partners in crime.
Biografía del autor
RUSS KICK is the originator of The Graphic Canon series, for which he has commissioned new work from over 300 artists, now going into its sixth volume. NPR described it as "Easily the most ambitious and successfully realized literary project in recent memory." Kick's nonfiction anthologies, including You Are Being Lied To and Everything You Know Is Wrong, informed a whole generation of Americans about the hard truths of American politics. He created a media frenzy for being the first to publish suppressed photographs of American flag-draped coffins returning from Iraq. The New York Times dubbed Kick "an information archaeologist," Details magazine described him as "a Renaissance man," and Utne Reader named him one of its "50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Your World." His popular website, AltGov2.org is active again and getting national media coverage for archiving documents that the Trump Administration has been deleting.
