Reading Art Spiegelman: Breakdowns: Portrait of the Artist as a Young %@&*!
-
- Art Spiegelman
In the late '70s, Art Spiegelman published his first major work, Breakdowns, a collection of strips that tackle the artist's own nervous break and time spent in a mental hospital. If artistic creation can serve as an elixir, Spiegelman concocted a potent brew. In the ensuing decades, he pushed his work (and the entire comics genre) forward, won a Pulitzer for his graphic novel Maus, and produced a thick portfolio of iconic covers for The New Yorker. Now, Spiegelman revisits his early book with an expanded edition. Hear the author's thoughts on it at Books Inc. tonight, then pick up a copy and have Spiegelman sign it.
