THE ACME NOVELTY DATEBOOK VOLUME 2 HC
by Chris Ware
Working directly in pen and ink, watercolor, and white-out, Ware has cannily
edited out all legally sensitive and personally incriminating material from his
private journals, carefully recomposing each page to simulate the appearance of
an ordered mind and established aesthetic directive. Phone numbers, references
to ex-girlfriends, “false starts,” and embarrassing experiments with unfamiliar
media have been generously excised to present the reader with the most pleasant
and colorful sketchbook reading experience available. Ware’s frustrated doodles
for his book covers, angry personal assaults on friends, half-finished comic
strips, lengthy and tiresome fulminations of personal disappointments, as well
as his now-beloved drawings of the generally miserable inhabitants of the city
of Chicago are found within. All in all, a necessary volume for fans of fine
art, water-based media, and personal diatribe.

intimate, imaginative, and whimsical sketches collected from the years during

THE ACME NOVELTY LIBRARY VOLUME 18 HC
by Chris Ware
Cartoonist Chris Ware abandons the engaging serialization of his “Rusty Brown”
and instead focuses upon his more experimentally grim narrative, “Building
Stories.” Set in a Chicago apartment building more or less in the year 2000, the
stories move from the straightforward to the complex, invading character’s
memories and personal ambitions with a text point size likely unreadable to
human beings over the age of 45. Reformatted to accommodate this different
material, readers will be pleased by the volume’s vertical shape and tasteful
design. (C: 0-1-0)
