by (W) Tove Jansson
D&Q reintroduces Tove Jansson’s beloved Moomin chapter books to a whole new generation of readers in a deluxe hardcover format.“They always slept from November to April, because such was the custom of their forefathers and Moomins stick to tradition.” That is, until Moomintroll accidentally wakes in the middle of the night and can’t get back to sleep. What awaits is a frighteningly unfamiliar world: dark, cold, and ultimately lonely. What’s Moomintroll to do? In Moominland Midwinter, Tove Jansson reveals Moominvalley as it’s never been seen before–not even by a Moomin! With his new friends Too-ticky, Sorry-oo, The Groke, and the utterly indomitable Little My, Moomintroll faces his fears and weathers the winter chill to become the first Moomin to live through an entire year. Jansson’s classic mid-century tale of friendship and finding your self-confidence is a timeless reminder that no matter how long the winter, spring always returns anew.

NOV26P142 - EAN 9781770469013

by (W) Yoko Kondo (CT) David Boyd
A melancholic portrait of Tokyo at the edge of collapse during the final days of World War II, by a celebrated Garo cartoonist. Adapted from Ango Sakaguchi’s famous historical fiction/romance writing, the graphic novel follows two people bound not by love, but by proximity to ruin.A former sex worker, she is emotionally sealed off, incapable of feeling pleasure in any familiarway. A writer, he is numb and adrift, and drawn to her detachment from the unraveling world. Together, they have made an agreement: they will stay together until the war ends—or they die. Drifting through bomb shelters, burned-out streets, and nights heavy with smoke, desire, and resignation, terror becomes a strange fascination; destruction takes on an erotic charge. There is something beautiful, almost intoxicating, about the end.Kondō’s minimalist manga style heightens the void—thin lines, empty rooms, distant gazes. Translated by award-winning David Boyd (Breasts and Eggs), this long-awaited release will be an instant classic.
Rated T+

NOV26P143 - EAN 9781770469525 serie

by (W) Lynda Barry
Veteran cartoonist and MacArthur Genius grant recipient Lynda Barry’s critically acclaimed creativity guide Picture This, the drawing companion to What It Is—now available in paperback! Beloved cartoonist and educator Lynda Barry takes readers along for the ride of their lives in this incredible peek at her creative process. Picture This is one part book-within-a-book found by young Arna at the library (to her good friend Marlys’s utter annoyance), and one part choose-your-own-adventure mind map to overcoming every fear you didn’t know you had about drawing.If Barry’s Eisner-Award winning book What It Is posed, explored, and answered the question “Do you wish you could write?,” Picture This does the same with the question, “Do you wish you could draw?” This charmingly unconventional mix of autobio cartooning, collage, and free association through the joy of the doodle lays the groundwork for the full Lynda Barry experience as seen in her other books Syllabus and Making Comics. This lush new paperback edition of a D&Q classic invites readers of all ages to nurture a drawing practice in a manner that is accessible to all who wish to learn.
