Автор: Ware, Chris Название: Acme novelty datebook 1995 - 1999 ISBN: 1897299184 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781897299180 Издательство: Macmillan USA/Holtzbrink(MPS) Рейтинг: Цена: 24490.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Straggling behind the mild 2003 success of cartoonist Chris Ware's first facsimile collection of his miscellaneous sketches, notes, and adolescent fantasies arrives this second volume, updating weary readers with Ware's clich d and outmoded insights from the late twentieth century. Working directly in pen and ink, watercolor, and white-out whenever he makes a mistake, Ware has cannily edited out all legally sensitive and personally incriminating material from his private journals, carefully recomposing each page to simulate the appearance of an ordered mind and established aesthetic directive. All phone numbers, references to ex-girlfriends, "false starts," and embarrassing experiments with unfamiliar drawing media have been generously excised to present the reader with the most pleasant and colorful sketchbook reading experience available. Included are Ware's frustrated doodles for his book covers, angry personal assaults on friends, half-finished comic strips, and lengthy and tiresome fulminations of personal disappointments both social and sexual, as well as his now-beloved drawings of the generally miserable inhabitants of the city of Chicago. All in all, a necessary volume for fans of fine art, water-based media, and personal diatribe. This hardcover is attractively designed and easy to resell.
Автор: Roth Philip Название: Philip Roth: Novels 1993-1995: Operation Shylock / Sabbath`s Theater ISBN: 159853078X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781598530780 Издательство: Random House (USA) Рейтинг: Цена: 21460.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The Library of America's definitive edition of Philip Roth's collected works continues with two novels that heralded the beginning of a more than decade-long creative explosion-one remarkable in an older writer and hailed by critics as unparalleled in American literary history. In the diabolically imaginative "Operation Shylock" (1993), a character named Philip Roth encounters a look-alike who claims Roth's identity and who tours Israel promoting a bizarre reverse exodus of the Jews-proselytizing the "real" Roth is intent on stopping, even if it means impersonating his impersonator. "This splendidly wicked book" is how the critic Frank Kermode described "Sabbath's Theater "(1995), a comic masterpiece of epic proportions whose gargantuan hero, Mickey Sabbath, grieving the loss of his unsurpassable mistress, embarks on a turbulent journey into his past besieged by the ghosts of those who loved and hated him most.
