Just in case “a single, immense, thrilling work of literary theory disguised as a reference book” doesn’t sound like the most exciting way to fill up your summer reading list, you may want to take a peek at this article from the New York Times.
Douglas Wolk runs down the best graphic novels of the season including everything from “a Canadian art curator and a German officer.. brought together by the relocation of the Louvre’s treasures during the Nazi occupation of France” to “Immanuel Kant as a pipe-smoking ‘epistemological attorney’ defending an angry God against charges of nonexistence.” Everything on this list sounds solid and we’re especially excited for anything from the Immonens, Fred Van Lente, or David Lapham.
