Is She Available?

Autor Igor Goldkind
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iun 2015
This book is a ground-breaking collaboration between Igor Goldkind and 15 artists from the world of comics, fantasy and fine art such as Glenn Fabry, Wendy Farrrow, Rian Hughes, David Lloyd, Liam Sharp and more including an original cover and interior illustrations by Bill Sienkiewicz all packaged in a design by Rian Hughes. Goldkind made graphic novels acceptable in the British media in the late 80s with titles such as Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns and now his vision of what a graphic novel could be is returning. Not with a comic or a graphic novel but with something completely revolutionary -- A book of poetry and comic strips, illustrated by some of the greatest and the good of those in comic books which he has known along the way, which does something very new as well: transforming the medium. - Bleeding Cool. Additionally the work ties into a collection of spoken words backed by the amazingly innovative music of British jazz musician Gilad Atzmon in the form of downloads, a CD and live performance and signing tours in both the UK and US through 2015 backed by a 6 month PR build up and additional merchandise including an original t-shirt design by Bill Sienkiewicz. Goldkind has truly reached out and grasped the quality of art in its many forms to produce this beautiful hardcover book.

Recenzii

"Is SHE Available?" is an experiment, and reading it feels more like an act of discovery... nonetheless there's a thrill to scrolling through its pages. It's an ambitious step toward what digital media can (and will) be." ~Chicago Tribune
"Igor Goldkinds bold new opus combines verse, art, jazz, animation" - "Wikipedia can be a dubious source. With local writer Igor Goldkind, it's easy to be suspicious of the myriad accomplishments listed. But after reading his Wiki page, it's hard to believe you haven't heard of him before. Back in the '70s, he was an early champion of a little event called Comic-Con (perhaps you've heard of it). According to the page, he's written for dozens of comic books over the years, including Judge Dredd and the revered British sci-fi serial, 2000 AD. He was a pioneer in digital media back in the early '90s, having started one of the first web-based publishing companies in the UK. Even with such a notable resume, all those accomplishments were all leading up to Is She Available?, Goldkind's bold and multifaceted new book that he says was 15 years in the making. To call it a graphic novel would be selling it short. Put simply, it's a 160-page collection of Goldkind's poetry and prose accompanied by art from dozens of notable fine art and comic book illustrators. While the poems could be read as stand-alone pieces, there is a distinct cohesiveness to the book and the themes presented in it." - from the lengthy review at sdcitybeat.com sept 2015
