Book Description
Eddie Pierce has one job in the rural community simply known as the valley. He is the caretaker of Mrs. Claire’s goats. It would be an easy enough business if it weren’t for devilish Tiny and his impressive set of horns. But Tiny isn’t the only problem Eddie has to face during a few aggravatingly hot weeks in May. Eddie has built himself a comfortable life in the valley, but change is coming whether he is ready or not. A new couple has moved in, and Eddie quickly finds himself pulled between his affection for his girl, his loyalty to his friends, and his duty to an elderly widow.

How to Read Nancy
Author: Paul Karasik
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
ISBN: 1606993615
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Everything that you need to know about reading, making, and understanding comics can be found in a single Nancy strip by Ernie Bushmiller from August 8, 1959. Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden’s groundbreaking work How to Read Nancy ingeniously isolates the separate building blocks of the language of comics through the deconstruction of a single strip. No other book on comics has taken such a simple yet methodical approach to laying bare how the comics medium really works. No other book of any kind has taken a single work by any artist and minutely (and entertainingly) pulled it apart like this. How to Read Nancy is a completely new approach towards deep-reading art. In addition, How to Read Nancy is a thoroughly researched history of how comics are made, from their creation at the drawing board to their ultimate destination at the bookstore. Textbook, art book, monogram, dissection, How to Read Nancy is a game changer in understanding how the “simplest” drawings grab us and never leave. Perfect for students, academics, scholars, and casual fans.
