Neil Gaiman: The View from the Cheap
Seats, Selected Nonfiction William Morrow, New York, 2016 "An inquisitive observer, thoughtful commentator, and assiduous craftsman, Neil Gaiman has long been celebrated for the sharp intellect and startling imagination that informs his bestselling fiction. In The View from the Cheap Seats, he brings together for the first time ever more than sixty pieces of his outstanding nonfiction. Analytical yet playful, erudite yet accessible, this cornucopia explores a broad range of interests and topics, including (but not limited to): authors past and present; music; storytelling; comics; bookshops; travel; fairy tales; America; inspiration; libraries; ghosts; and the title piece, at turns touching and self-deprecating, which recounts the author's experiences at the 2010 Academy Awards in Hollywood." |

DARK KNIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY FRANK HERBERT'S CHAPTERHOUSE: DUNE JEFF JONES' IDYL WILD ANIMALS I HAVE KNOWN by ERNEST THOMPSON SETON
|
|
DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY DC Comics, 2016 "In this surprising original graphic novel, we see Batman in a new light - as the savior who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutal attack that left him unable to face the world. In the 1990s, Eisner Award-winning writer Paul Dini had a flourishing career writing the popular Batman: The Animated Series and Tiny Toon Adventures. Walking home one evening, he was jumped and viciously beaten within an inch of his life. His recovery process was arduous, hampered by the imagined antics of the villains he was writing for television including The Joker, Harley Quinn and the Penguin. But despite how bleak his circumstances were, or perhaps because of it, Dini also always imagined the Batman at his side during his darkest moments. DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY is the harrowing and eloquent autobiographical tale of Dini's struggle to overcome a truly desperate situation. It is a Batman story like none other. Art by Eduardo Risso (100 Bullets, Dark Knight III: The Master Race)." |

WOODY GUTHRIE AND THE DUST BOWL BALLADS Graphic Novel by Nick Hayes Abrams Comicarts, 2016 Hardcover book is new. "Using the sepia tones of
the Dust Bowl as his palette, author and artist Nick Hayes tells the story of world-famous
folkie Woody Guthrie (1912-1967), starting in the 1920s when Guthrie was a teenager
supporting himself in dried-up, post-boomtown Oklahoma. Picking up a harmonica and
eventually a battered guitar, Guthrie finds solace in the ancient lineage of folksong.
Hayes charts the musician's course from Oklahoma and Texas towns ravaged by dust and the
Depression to boxcars, factory farms, and the migrant camps of California, highlighting
Guthrie's dedication to singing American folk tunes and creating his own modern classics
along the way." |
