(W/A) Lynd Ward, introduction by Art Spiegelman From the eve of the Great Depression to the start of World War II, Lynd Ward observed the troubled American scene through the double lens of a politically committed storyteller and a visionary graphic artist. His medium - the wordless 'novel in woodcuts' - was his alone, and he quickly brought it from bold iconographic infancy to subtle and still unrivalled mastery. The Library of America brings Ward's masterworks to a new generation of readers, together with nine illuminating essays about his craft and an introductory essay by Art Spiegelman that defines Ward's towering achievement.

Peanuts, Charles Schulz's beloved comic strip, has given the world a cast of characters for the ages. Here, in an unprecedented collection of thirty-two essays, artists and writers ranging from Ann Patchett to Chris Ware consider the deeper truths of Peanuts, its influence on their lives and on the culture more broadly, and the lessons it can teach us about disappointment, melancholy, and those fleeting moments of warm-puppy happiness. The contributors reflect on the experience of discovering Peanuts as a child, their identification with its characters and predicaments, and, for the artists in the book, the momentous effects of their encounters with the strip on their later careers. The Peanuts Papers is an enchanting, poignant gathering of responses to the greatest American comic strip, enabling us to see it anew in fresh and revealing ways.
