Autor Richard McGuire
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 dec 2014
Hereis Richard McGuire's unique graphic novel based on the legendary 1989 comic strip of the same name.

Richard McGuire's groundbreaking comic stripHerewas published under Art Spiegelman's editorship atRAWin 1989.

Built in six pages of interlocking panels, dated by year, it collapsed time and space to tell the story of the corner of a room - and its inhabitants - between the years 500,957,406,073 BC and 2033 AD.

The strip remains one of the most influential and widely discussed contributions to the medium, and it has now been developed, expanded and reimagined by the artist into this full-length, full-colour graphic novel - a must for any fan of the genre.

'From now on, McGuire will be known as the author of the novelHere, because it's a work of literature and art unlike any seen or read before. A book like this comes along once a decade, if not a century' Chris Ware,Guardian

Recenzii

From now on, McGuire will be known as the author of the novelHere, because it's a work of literature and art unlike any seen or read before. A book like this comes along once a decade, if not a century
Promises to leapfrog immediately to the front ranks of the graphic-novel genre
Exquisitely drawn . . . dizzying. To hold it is to covet it
All comics are somehow sheet music of time, but Richard's book is a symphony. I can't think of too many works that totally justify the odd share of attention comics have gotten in recent years, but this is one of them.
Ameditation on "impermanence" . . . emotionally compelling yet unsettling
A gorgeous symphony
Beautiful, mesmerizing, a dazzling experiment in form . . . both bleak and vivid and more a work of art than a comic book
The concept is stunningly simple, and in laying bare the universality of existence - its beauty, ugliness, and mundanity - it is utterly moving
McGuire adds lavish color and some plot, but he preserves the captivating, uncanny sense of love, anger and tragedy flying across the centuries while staying in one place.
One of the most engaging graphic novel experiments in book form I've ever seen
Hereheightens our awareness of how much has gone before and is still to come
Rarely does a conceptual work seize the emotions likeHere.Every moment seems insignificant compared with the massive sweep of time, and yet the most trivial actions take on an aching poignancy
Almost overwhelmingly poignant. His masterful sense of time and the power of the mundane makes this feel like the graphic novel equivalent of Terrence Malick'sThe Tree of Life
Completely wonderful
You begin to appreciate McGuire's extraordinary command of history and pacing . . . the non-chronological arrangement seems faithful to how consciousness really works
