About This Item
Seattle, Washington: Fantagraphics Books, 2021. Softcover. VG+ (light smudges, scuffs to white wraps; rubbed edge-wear. tightly bound; likely unread). white wraps w/ black illustrations & writing. 488 pgs w/ bw & color illustrations. Presented as a handsome double-sided book, On the One Hand includes a portfolio of 17 of Blechman's graphically sublime covers for the fabled Story magazine. On the Other Hand includes a collection of essays that offer his trenchant insights, both playful and profound, on the state of our culture today including his personal perspective on film, theater ("Well, let's be fair to Franz Kafka. Can you blame a cockroach?"), literature, history, politics, social change, and his fellow cartoonists and illustrators. Blechman shares his hard-earned insights and personal anecdotes on persisting your way to success ("Second Acts"), on growing older but not surrendering youth ("I'm Not Finished"), and on the constraints that every artist from caveman days to the present must overcome. ("Against those odds, confidence is hard to come by.")--Publisher's Website.
