  • James Joyce: Portrait of a Dubliner—A Graphic

    Skyhorse Publishing James Joyce: Portrait of a Dubliner—A Graphic

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisA dazzling, prize-winning graphic biography of one of the world's most revered writers. Winner of Spain's National Comic Prize and published to acclaim in Ireland, here is an extraordinary graphic biography of James Joyce that offers a fresh take on his tumultuous life. With evocative anecdotes and hundreds of ink-wash drawings, Alfonso Zapico invites the reader to share Joyce's journey, from his earliest days in Dublin to his life with his great love, Nora Barnacle, and their children, and his struggles and triumphs as an artist. Joyce experienced poverty, rejection, censorship, charges of blasphemy and obscenity, war, and crippling ill-health. A rebel and nonconformist in Dublin and a harsh critic of Irish society, he left Ireland in self-imposed exile with Nora, moving to Paris, Pola, Trieste, Rome, London, and finally Zurich. He overcame monumental challenges in creating and publishing Dubliners, Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses, and Finnegan's Wake. Along the way, he encountered a colorful cast of characters, from the Irish nationalists Charles Parnell and Michael Collins to literary greats Yeats, Proust, Hemingway, and Beckett, and the likes of Carl Jung and Vladimir Lenin.Trade Review"Zapico remains true to the life and spirit of the Irish master while appealing to readers who might not have the patience for either Joyce's novels or a standard, more exhaustive biography. . . . A solid account of the development of a writer not easy to encapsulate." —Kirkus "Readers familiar with James Joyce only through his dour dust-jacket photos are in for a big surprise in this warts-and-all graphic biography of Ireland’s best-known and most divisive writer. . . . Using a traditional sequential panel format, the black-and-white, ink-wash illustrations are surprisingly expressive, capturing Joyce’s jocular manner and rabble-rousing with an indulgent yet objective hand. Because it reveals its subject without sensationalizing or glamorizing him, readers will close the book with a better understanding of a complex man and his influential work." —Booklist "This biography is an enjoyable, valuable introduction to Joyce for students and literary-minded readers, high school and up. . . . Zapico spares none of the novelist’s personal complexities or contradictions." —Library Journal "Zapico has created a well-rounded and honest portrait of a controversial yet brilliant writer, and the genius as well as the artistic temperament shines through on every page." —Portland Book Review "The cartoonist’s sensory immersion in the landscapes of Joyce’s life lends this Portrait of a Dubliner its visual authority: the sordid charm of turn-of-the-century Dublin, the civilized cosmopolitanism of Trieste at the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the modernist ebullience of interwar Paris are all portrayed vividly in Zapico’s lively gestural style of freehand drawing and ink-wash shading. . . . Zapico is especially good on Joyce’s political and historical context. . . . The story he tells is a model of artistic independence in times of crisis. For that reason alone, Joyce might well have admired this particular comic book.” —Rain Taxi Review of Books “Alfonso Zapico gives a thorough and masterful pictorial retelling of Joyce's life in James Joyce: Portrait of a Dubliner: A Graphic Biography, a graphic novel that goes far toward illuminating the enigmatic author. . . . With his excellent illustrations, Zapico not only makes the many characters in Joyce's life story distinct, but also provides rich background details of the cities that were so important to Joyce's development. . . . Zapico’s text is well-written and substantial, complementing the book’s images perfectly. For those already familiar with Joyce’s writings . . . or those interested in the origins of those works, James Joyce: Portrait of a Dubliner is a brilliant companion.” —Foreword “Remarkable . . . The life of James Joyce—and his all-consuming love for Nora—are brought spectacularly alive.” —Irish Independent "A wonderful piece of work . . . a comic book artist at the top of his game."—forbiddenplanet.co.uk "Zapico tosse[s] out the panels in moments of fluid genius . . . it really does bring the general debauchery of Joyce's life to the fore." —girlslikecomics.com “There are many celebrated lives of Joyce, but few of them will achieve the extraordinary immediacy and pathos of Zapico's work. . . . James Joyce, Portrait of a Dubliner is a comic, brilliant and heartfelt book that transcends whatever baggage comes with the [graphic] genre to become something much more elevated and accomplished.” —Irish Central

    Book SynopsisGET SMASHED…OR BE SMASHED! Meet Armstrong: Since the ancient city of Ur, this immortal adventurer has spent the last 7,000 years drinking and carousing his way through history alongside some of the greatest merrymakers the world has ever known. Meet Archer: A sheltered teenage martial arts master and expert marksman that was raised for a single purpose - to kill the devil incarnate. Little did he know that this undying evil was actually Armstrong (he's actually a pretty good guy…once you get to know him) and, since hitting the road together, the two have become great friends and even better partners. Now: Archer is about to set off on his most dangerous mission yet - a quest into the mystic reaches of Armstrong's bottomless satchel to liberate his friend and comrade from the clutches of the mad god Bacchus! (Okay, so, Armstrong went into the satchel himself to get a bottle of whiskey that he kinda misplaced and got stuck. It's like the Amazon warehouse of arcane treasures in there…and he doesn't exactly have a maid service.) Imprisoned in Armstrong's satchel for centuries, Bacchus now commands a legion of monsters, goblins and golems bent on escaping back into the world of man and enacting revenge on their captor… Can Archer single-handedly combat the godly embodiment of intoxication himself - and rescue his best buddy - without becoming lost amongst Armstrong's endless repository of bizarre artifacts and historical oddities in the process? From red-hot rising star Rafer Roberts (Plastic Farm) and superstar artist David Lafuente (Ultimate Spider-Man), Valiant's next blockbuster series starts here!

From sycophantic fans to duplicitous gallerists, fatuous patrons to self-aggrandizing art stars, he lampoons each and every facet of the eminently ridiculous industry of truth and beauty. Follow Cupcake, the Matthew Barney obsessive; Epiphany nee Tiffany Clydesdale, the divinely inspired performance artist; Ivanhoe, a modern knight in search of artistic vengeance, and his squire, Turnbuckle. Each artist is more ridiculous than the last, yet they are tested and transformed by the even more absurd machinations of Thurber s fantastical art world. Can the Free Little Pigs destroy this blighted system? Will The Group continue its indirect assassination of promising young artists? Can artistic integrity exist in this world amid the capitalist co-opting, petty rivalries, otherworldly portals, heavenly interventions, and murders at sea? Art Comic is brimming with references and cameos, outsize personalities and shuddering nonsense?Robert Rauschenberg smashes a beer bottle, Francesca Woodman, a wineglass. In the center of it all, Thurber s twisted drawings and laugh-out-loud dialogue convey a complicated picture of an industry at the intersection of fantasy and reality. Part scathing condemnation, part irreverent appreciation, Thurber s comics skewer the art world in a way only an art lover can.
