Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. "A story about storytelling.Conjures up the grindhouse movie-making scene in 1970s Los Angeles and tracks an ambitious young man's flailing attempts to build a family and a career as a film arteest in that debased world.A book with a lot of heart." -Art Spiegelman, bestselling author of MAUS Fourteen years in the making, renowned and beloved graphic novelist Sammy Harkham finally delivers his epic story of artistic ambition, the heartbreak it can bring, and what it means to be human YOU CAN BURN IN HELL Set primarily in Los Angeles in 1971, Blood of the Virgin is the story of twenty‑seven‑year‑old Seymour, an Iraqi Jewish immigrant film editor who works for an exploitation film production company. Sammy Harkham brings us into the underbelly of Los Angeles during a crucial evolutionary moment in the industry from the last wheeze of the studio system to the rise of independent filmmaking. Seymour, his wife, and their new baby struggle as he tries to make it in the movie business, writing screenplays on spec and pining for the chance to direct. When his boss buys one of his scripts for a project called Blood of the Virgin and gives Seymour the chance to direct it, what follows is a surreal, tragicomic making-of journey. As Seymour's blind ambition propels the movie, his home life grows increasingly fraught. The film's production becomes a means to spiral out into time and space, resulting in an epic graphic novel that explores the intersection of twentieth‑century America, parenthood, sex, the immigrant experience, the dawn of early Hollywood, and, shockingly, the Holocaust. Like a cosmic kaleidoscope, Blood of the Virgin shifts and evolves with each panel, widening its context as the story unfolds, building an intricate web of dreams and heartbreak, allowing the reader to zoom in to the novel's core: the bittersweet cost of coming into one's own. …

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Encuadernación: Rústica Colección: Los impronunciables Considerado mejor cómic del año por medios tan poco sospechosos de alternativos como Los Angeles Times, "Todo y nada" recoge la nómina completa de las historias cortas y autoconclusivas de su autor, incluyendo casi un 20% de páginas inéditas con respecto a la edición original norteamericana. El estilo clásico de Harkham es a la vez preciso y elocuente, capaz de condensar grandes dosis de emoción e información en solo unos pocos diálogos y viñetas llenos de matices. En el centro del libro, entre sátiras universitarias, relatos de terror gótico y esbozos policíacos, tres historias que se desarrollan en marcos muy dispares centran la atención del lector: A partir de un relato de Maupassant, "Pobre marinero" (repaginada para la ocasión por Harkham en solo 10 páginas) recoge el mito del hombre que se echa a la mar; en "Luvabitch, Ucrania, 1876" el autor se sitúa a sí mismo en el epicentro del judaísmo jasídico para narrar un episodio rural; por último, "Somersaulting" es un abúlico romance de verano protagonizado por dos adolescentes en la Australia meridional. Junto a estos relatos, multitud de historietas cortas protagonizadas directa o tangencialmente por Napoleón, John Merrick, firmas del New Yorker y nombres esenciales del cómic USA como Chris Oliveros, Tom Devlin, Kevin Huizenga, C. F. o Gary Panter. En conjunto, el libro confirma por fin el lugar privilegiado de Hakham entre los mejores narradores de su generación. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
