Book SynopsisThe entrancing story of the Brontë sisters' childhood imaginary world, from the New York Times bestselling graphic novelist. Four children: Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne have invented a world so real and vivid that they can step right into it. But can reality be enough, when fiction is so enticing? And what happens to an imaginary world when its creators grow up?Plots are spiralling, characters are getting wildly out of hand, and a great deal of ink is being spilt...Welcome to Glass Town.Trade ReviewA wild journey: an odyssey… A feat of narrative concision that is by turns dreamy, and gritty. If it’s a fantastic comic – and I think that it is – then it’s also one of the best books about the Brontës’ juvenilia ever written. -- Rachel Cooke * Observer *A brilliant, bonkers tribute to the Brontës… Isabel Greenberg has done something extraordinary… Glass Town works so well because while the Brontës’ own story is absolutely devastating, the Glass Town scenes are full of fun… They made their world for the sheer pleasure of making, and that pleasure radiates off Greenberg’s pages too. -- Samantha Ellis * Daily Telegraph ***** *Oh, this is good… [Glass Town] is a wonderfully moving exploration of the line between creator and creation. And mortality and immortality, for that matter. It is also another reminder that Greenberg is one of the most singular and imaginative graphic novelists we have. -- Teddy Jamieson * Herald Scotland *The weird and wonderful world of the Brontës is brought to life in beautiful, blazing colour… A wonderful book. Greenberg is impressively well-informed about the Brontës, but handles her facts lightly, allowing full power to the beautiful and sensitive images… It’s strange how moving these images are. -- Claire Harman * Evening Standard, *Book of the Week* *[A] beautifully drawn graphic novel… From the vivid artwork to a story as poignant and touching as it is witty, this is an artful, inventive and deeply moving mash-up of fact and fiction. -- Charlotte Heathcote * Daily Mirror *Magical… Greenberg’s illustrations are wonderful – witty, uncanny, melancholy and funny, brilliantly capturing the creativity of the hugely gifted Brontës. -- Eithne Farry * Sunday Express *Glass Town is a vivid historical fiction following the lives of the Brontë family… [Greenberg] gracefully moves in and out of the Brontë dreamworld… Glass Town might provide a kind of meta-escapism for a moment in time when many of us feel that fiction is brighter than reality. -- Anna Leszkiewicz * New Statesman *Glass Town is a book to savour, a captivating mash-up of fact and fantasy, with something wonderful on every page. I loved it. -- Sarah WatersAn ingenious intertwining of real life and make believe, Glass Town explores the Brontës’ creative impulse and its effect on their lives. It is the perfect combination of clever, crazy, and just a tiny bit creepy, and will appeal to anyone who has wondered about how imagination shapes us, as well as to card-carrying Brontë fans. -- Tracy ChevalierThe Brontës' early stories of fantastical worlds...have been inventively brought to life in this beautiful new graphic novel. There's a poignant edge to the escapism. -- Tristram Fane Saunders * Telegraph *

Book SynopsisPatience is an indescribable psychedelic science-fiction love story, veering with uncanny precision from violent destruction to deeply personal tenderness in a way that is both quintessentially ‘Clowesian’, and utterly unique in the author’s body of work. This 180-page, full-colour story affords Clowes the opportunity to draw some of the most exuberant and breathtaking pages of his life, and to tell his most suspenseful, surprising and affecting story yet.The story opens in 2012, when Jack Barlow returns home to find Patience, his pregnant girlfriend, murdered. We meet him next in 2029, still haunted by the murder. He hears of a guy who thinks he’s invented a device that enables time travel. On the next page Jack is in 2006, watching Patience on her dates with boys. Is one of them the killer?Trade ReviewPatience is a new high watermark for the author, but also for the medium as a whole... Clowes is a singular voice, not just in comics but in American literature. * Independent *No cartoonist alive devotes as much effort as Daniel Clowes to mapping the differences between the way people see themselves and the way they really are… Clowes’s work is characterized by such technical perfection and well-calibrated acidity… Clowes’s new book, Patience, is an enormous undertaking, not just in length but visually and in narrative scope. -- Sam Thielman * Guardian *Clowes does realism impeccably…but he is also fond of letting the irruption of the hyperreal or fantastical not so much shift gears as change the entire vehicle… This is a deeply affecting book…its sustained undertow of tenderness and melancholy giving it a surprising delicacy. -- Neel Mukherjee * Guardian *Clowes’ drawings are as uncompromisingly honest and deadpan as ever, and the twists towards the end are expertly plotted, making Patience a brilliant addition to his great body of work. -- Doug Johnstone * Big Issue *A naturalistic feel and the confidence that many contemporary fiction writers try to achieve… It’s a time-travelling love story by a beautiful, twisted genius. * Vice Magazine *Clowes mixes retro-styled visuals with eye-poppingly colourful surrealism and although it has the pace of a thriller, it’s also soaked in a feeling of helplessness as its characters struggle to control the world in which they live. * Metro *Patience by Daniel Clowes is the NEXT great book you are going to read… But this book is so good it should cross over into the arena of those who don’t normally partake of books in which images and words intersect… read this, fall in love with its majesty… Don’t miss out. * Bookmunch *Tender and heartfelt, exciting and bizarre, Patience is interested above all in the stories we tell ourselves about love. -- Rachel Cook * Observer *As the time travel escalates the book heads towards entropy, gripping us to the very last panel and reminding us just why Clowes is held in such high regard. This is an essential purchase. -- Pete Redrup * Quietus *Creating weird worlds, subverting genres and confounding expectations is what Clowes does best. -- Tim Noakes * Dazed Digital *
