This collection of poetry by humorist and poet Seth Brown speaks to the human condition: plaintive yet hopeful, ridiculous but thought-provoking, covering all topics from spider murder to stolen cookies to the complexities of love. Written entirely during the pandemic, 50% of all profits to be donated to COVID relief in India. "The poems have a boldness of imagination, and show the passionate flight of profound feeling.

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.
