DRAWN & QUARTERLY
AYA: THE SECRETS COME OUT HC
(W) Marguerite Abouet (A) Clement Oubrerie
Secrets and desires cast long shadows in the third volume of Abouet and
Oubrerie's highly regarded series about life in the Ivory Coast of the 1970s.
It's a world of shifting values, where issues like arranged marriage and gay
love have Aya and her friends yearning to break out of the confines of their
community, while the ties of friendship and support draw them back into its
familiarity. Distinctly African and brilliantly universal, the series offers an
unflinching take on human strengths, foibles, and the capriciousness of our
natures.

AYA: OF YOP CITY HC
(W) Marguerite Abouet (A) Clement Oubrerie
The new mother Adjoua has her friends to help with the baby, perhaps employing
Aya a bit too frequently, while a new romance leaves Bintou with little time for
her friends, let alone their responsibilities. Aya's father is caught in the
midst of his own trysts and his employer's declining Solibra beer sales, and
Adjoua's brother finds his share of the city's nightlife. (JUL083945)

MASTERPIECE COMICS HC
(W/A) R. Sikoryak
Masterpiece Comics adapts a variety of classic literary works with the most
iconic visual idioms of twentieth-century comics. Dense with exclamation marks
and lurid zip-a-tone, R. Sikoryak's parodies remind us of the sensational
excesses of the canon, or, if you prefer, of the economical expressiveness of
classic comics from Superman to Peanuts. Sikoryak's classics have appeared in
landmark anthologies such as Raw and Drawn & Quarterly, all of which are
collected here, along with brilliant new satires.

(W/A) Susumu Karsumata
Red Snow continues D+Q's groundbreaking exploration of the fascinating world of
Gekiga in this collection of short stories drawn with great delicacy and told
with subtle nuance by legendary Japanese artist Susumu Katsumata. The setting is
the pre-modern Japanese countryside of the author's youth, a slightly magical
world where ancestral traditions hold sway over a people in the full vigor of
life.
