Some of the most noteworthy graphic novels and comic books of recent years have been entirely autobiographical. In Graphic Subjects, Michael A. Chaney brings together a lively mix of scholars to examine the use of autobiography within graphic novels, including such critically acclaimed examples as Art Spiegelman's Maus, David Beauchard's Epileptic, Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis, Alan Moore's Watchmen, and Gene Yang's American Born Chinese.

These essays, accompanied by visual examples, illuminate the new horizons that illustrated autobiographical narrative creates. The volume insightfully highlights the ways that graphic novelists and literary cartoonists have incorporated history, experience, and life stories into their work. The result is a challenging and innovative collection that reveals the combined power of autobiography and the graphic novel.

"This is a varied but well-focused collection of essays that is more thorough than anything else in print. Readers of graphic novels and autobiography will need to start here to learn the basic principles of discussion and terms of discourse."
—M. Thomas Inge, author of Comics as Culture

Tintin And The Secret Of Literature - Tom McCarthy.pdf

Arguing that the Tintin books' characters are as strong and their plots as complex as any dreamed up by the great novelists, Tom McCarthy asks a simple question: Is Tintin literature? Taking a cue from Tintin himself -- who spends much of his time tracking down illicit radio signals, entering crypts, and decoding puzzles -- McCarthy suggests that we too need to "tune in" and decode if we want to capture what's going on in Herge's extraordinarily popular work. What emerges from McCarthy's examination of Tintin is a remarkable story of illegitimacy and deceit, in both Herge's work and his own family history. McCarthy's irresistibly clever, tightly constructed book shows how the themes Tintin generates -- expulsion from home, violation of the sacred, the host-guest relationship turned sour, and anxieties around questions of forgery and fakes -- are the same that have fueled and troubled writers from the classical era to the present day.

First, if you are already into this form of Japanese erotic story telling, it is a beautiful collection of varied styles that explores the intricacies of the individual characters and the narratives of their unique identities that the word "gay" simply can't completely encompass. It showcases a number of major artists of the form, engages in a very strong scholarly examination of the genre, features wonderful introductions/interviews with each artist (outlining everything from their personal stories, their understanding of their sexuality within a sexual community, and a very lucid study of their aesthetics), virtually censorship free (very rare for gay visual eroticism coming from Japan, the liberty of which is largely due to the support and appreciation shown by the editors to the artists and the artistic merit of their work), includes a very brief but thoroughly researched history of male same-sex desire in Japan (from far back in the country's past to the present day), and contains content that just wonderfully hot. For anyone not familiar with this art style but interested in becoming more acquainted with it on an extensively large number of levels, this collection of what is usually called in "Bara" in English is without question the best place you could start. As mentioned before, one of the great elements of this volume is how it is both an assemblage of different approaches to a particular genre of homo-eroticism through sampling so many talents and also a fine work of scholarship. I'm using the term "bara" for convenience's sake, but the term's usefulness in describing this art style (which I will say focuses on larger men, ranging from men with more-to-love type figures to hyper-muscled types and much more). The artists featured are in so many ways taste makers who gave articulations to desires that certainly existed but were/are not given much attention in many cultures because of cultural preoccupations with certain bodily "ideals." One way you can tell the editors knew what they were doing is by looking at the reverence that is shown to Gengoroh Tagame, who is the central figure behind this art movement and also the inspiration for the historical and aesthetic study that structures the analytical sections (Tagame is also a first-class historian of sexuality). It's hot, smart, a great introduction for the curious, and an invaluable volume for fans and advocates of this very diverse and bodily affirming style of illustrated sexual expression. Just to be clear, this is a great collection of very sexy short manga narratives. That alone, aside from all of the other wonderful things this great book achieves, makes owning the text a very seductive and raw investment.
