(W/A) Sophie Crumb A groundbreaking work of striking originality that charts a young artist's life through her own drawings, from toddlerhood to motherhood. Sophie Crumb's startlingly expressive drawings track her development as an artist from age 2 to 28. Revealing how an original artistic sensibility is both innate and nurtured, the book features six separate developmental stages, including Sophie's earliest drawings, the elaborate fantasy world of her childhood, her late adolescent rebellion, and her coming of age in the milieu of the Paris circus world and New York's 'seventh circle of hell.' The drawings from her early twenties reflect a personal anguish that finally ends with her becoming a mother and creating a family of her own. Illuminating and intimate, this book is a dramatic yet subtle statement on the evolution of personality as seen through art. Limited Edition includes signed prints by Sophie Crumb, her father Robert Crumb and mother Aline Crumb. A groundbreaking work of striking originality that charts a young artists life through her own drawings. Introductions and edited by Robert Crumb and Aline Crumb.

A firsthand account of how this extraordinary cult movie was made by the Oscar-winning Coen brothers. The Big Lebowski is a razor-sharp comedy thriller of mistaken identity, gangsters, bowling, kidnapping, and money gone astray, written by the Coens, directed by Joel Coen, and produced by Ethan Coen. Not given to talking publicly about their work, the Coens gave access to Tricia Cooke and William Preston Robertson to interview the cast and crew. In a prose style that complements the Coens' filmic one, the book discusses the Coens' oeuvre, the themes of their films, their atypical brand of humor, their craft, and their artistic vision.

Readers have long cherished the work of comic masters such as Will Eisner, Jules Feiffer, and Art Spiegelman, all of whom happen to be Jewish. Few, however, are probably aware that the Jewish role in creating the American comic art form is no less significant than the Jewish influence on Hollywood filmmaking. With three brief essays by Paul Buhle, the well-known historian of American Jewish life, Jews and American Comics offers readers a pictorial backstory tracing Jewish involvement in comic art from several little-known strips in Yiddish newspapers of the early twentieth century through the mid-century origins of the modern comic book and finally to contemporary comic art.

Nominated for three 2010 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards: From Creation to the death of Joseph, here are all 50 chapters of the Book of Genesis, revealingly illustrated as never before. Envisioning the first book of the bible like no one before him, R. Crumb, the legendary illustrator, reveals here the story of Genesis in a profoundly honest and deeply moving way. Originally thinking that we would do a take off of Adam and Eve, Crumb became so fascinated by the Bible's language, 'a text so great and so strange that it lends itself readily to graphic depictions,' that he decided instead to do a literal interpretation using the text word for word in a version primarily assembled from the translations of Robert Alter and the King James bible.

In what will be the closest thing Eisner fans will see to an autobiography, the great master and pioneer of American graphic arts presents the most intimate and personal perspective yet on his life as a writer, a professional, and an artist. 'The Dreamer' and 'To the Heart of the Storm' describe Eisner's gritty early life and career, while 'The Name of the Game' chronicles a personal history of his wife's family. Finally, two shorter pieces illuminate the bookends of a legendary career: 'The Day I Became a Professional' describes Eisner's first rejection from a potential publisher, and 'A Sunset in Sunshine City' provides a poignant portrait of Eisner in old age.
