A graduate from the Sequential Arts Program at Toronto’s Max the Mutt Animation School\, she is best known for her work on young adult indie comics such as Cobble Hill\, publishing with 215 Ink.

SUMMARY:Lee Lai & Eli Bechelany-Lynch: Stone Fruit Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the release of Lee Lai’s debut original graphic novel\, Stone Fruit. Lee is joined in conversation by poet Eli Tareq El Bechelany-Lynch. RSVP here.\n\nFind the book here: https://bit.ly/39pON6B\n\nMore info on our webstore here:\nhttp://mtl.drawnandquarterly.com/posts/webstore-faq\n\nBy purchasing your book at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly you help support events like this one\, independent publishing and retailing\, our neighborhood\, and authors both local and from around the world who depend on independent bookstores for their livelihood. Your support is appreciated.\n\n///////////////////////////////////////\n\nSTONE FRUIT\nBron and Ray are a queer couple who enjoy their role as the fun weirdo aunties to Ray’s niece\, six-year-old Nessie. Their playdates are little oases of wildness\, joy\, and ease in all three of their lives\, which ping-pong between familial tensions and deep-seeded personal stumbling blocks. As their emotional intimacy erodes\, Ray and Bron isolate from each other and attempt to repair their broken family ties — Ray with her overworked\, resentful single-mother sister and Bron with her religious teenage sister who doesn’t fully grasp the complexities of gender identity. Taking a leap of faith\, each opens up and learns they have more in common with their siblings than they ever knew. At turns joyful and heartbreaking\, Stone Fruit reveals through intimately naturalistic dialog and blue-hued watercolor how painful it can be to truly become vulnerable to your loved ones — and how fulfilling it is to be finally understood for who you are.\n\n///////////////////////////////////////\n\nLEE LAI\nLee Lai is an Australian cartoonist and illustrator living in Tio’tia:ke (Montreal\, QC).\nELI TAREQ EL BECHELANY-LYNCH\nEli Tareq El Bechelany-Lynch is a queer Arab poet living in Tio’tia:ke\, unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory (Montreal).\n\n///////////////////////////////////////\n\nLibrairie Drawn & Quarterly recognizes that our events and bookstores are located on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. Many of us refer to Montreal as our home\, but it is named Tiohtiá:ke. This has always been a gathering place for many First Nations and continues to be home to a diverse population of Indigenous peoples. It is important to think about how each and every one of us has arrived here. We are grateful that creating and sharing stories has been a part of this land for thousands of years and we urge you to seek out a story that is different from your own.

SUMMARY:Gilbert Hernandez with Marlon James at Strand Bookstore: Hypnotwist Virtual Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join Gilbert Hernandez as he presents his newest book Hypnotwist / Scarlet by Starlight. Joining Gilbert in conversation is award winning author Marlon James. This event is presented by The Strand and will be held on Crowdcast. \nThis is a ticketed event. Please purchase a ticket HERE. \n\nIn the Eisner Award-winning wordless comic (silent movie?) “Hypnotwist\,” Hernandez’s B-movie star Fritz plays a character who doesn’t seem to be going anywhere\, until she puts on a pair of glittery pumps. Her wanderings become increasingly surreal as she confronts motherhood\, alcoholism\, a sinister smiley face\, cruelty\, and her worst fate: “Killer” cameos! Includes 16 pages of previously unpublished\, additional material. “Scarlet by Starlight” is a B movie that’s Star Trek meets Heart of Darkness. “Scientists\,” or colonizers\, are doing research\, surrounded by “primitive” fauna they affectionately nickname or treat like pests. Fritz plays Scarlet\, a peaceful\, catlike humanoid with a mate and children. When she becomes infatuated with one of the scientists\, the fragile web of relationships explodes into violence and death\, calling into question who the “advanced\, civilized” creatures really are. \nThe two graphic novellas that comprise the book will be published together with two covers\, so the two stories each end in the middle of the book (with the one you’re not reading being upside down). This very cool\, handsome “Double Feature” package will be an essential item for Love and Rockets completists! \n  \n\n\n\nGilbert Hernandez was born in Oxnard\, California\, and is the co- creator\, with his brothers Jaime and Mario\, of the long-running\, award-winning\, and critically acclaimed series Love and Rockets. He is best known for his Palomar stories\, following a fictional Central American town and its residents\, collected in Heartbreak Soup\, Human Diastrophism\, and Beyond Palomar. Hernandez has won numerous awards for his stories\, including the Kirby Award\, the Inkpot Award\, the Harvey Award\, and the United States Artists Literature Fellowship. His newest book is the dual collection Hypnotwist/Scarlet By Starlight. He resides in Las Vegas\, Nevada\, with his wife and daughter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarlon James was born in Jamaica in 1970. His novel A Brief History of Seven Killings won the 2015 Man Booker Prize. It was also a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and won the OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature for fiction\, the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for fiction\, and the Minnesota Book Award. It was also a New York Times Notable Book. James is also the author of The Book of Night Women\, which won the 2010 Dayton Literary Peace Prize and the Minnesota Book Award\, and was a finalist for the 2010 National Book Critics Circle Award in fiction and an NAACP Image Award. His first novel\, John Crow’s Devil\, was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for first fiction and the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize\, and was a New York Times Editors’ Choice. James divides his time between Minnesota and New York.

SUMMARY:Peter Bagge with Everett True at Strand Bookstore: The Complete Hate Virtual Book Event
DESCRIPTION:Peter Bagge with Everett True: The Complete Hate\n\nMonday November 23 06:00PM-07:00PM ET \n\nThis virtual event is free to attend. Register here to participate. \nPurchase a copy of The Complete Hate to help support the authors and The Strand. Copies purchased through the event will include a free bookplate signed by Peter Bagge. \nGrab a gift card if you already have the book and want to support our programming. \nJoin prolific cartoonist Peter Bagge as he launches The Complete Hate\, an archival collection of his classic comic Hate. Peter will be joined in conversation by legendary rock journalist and grunge historian Everett True! The event will take place on Zoom and be live-streamed on The Strand’s Facebook Page. \nAn archival collection of one of the bestselling alternative comic book series ― arguably\, the Great American Grunge novel ― complete for the first time. \nThe Complete Hate is a three-volume set that includes the original 1990-1998 30-issue run\, the nine subsequent Hate Annuals\, and tons of other Hate-related comics\, illustrations\, and ephemera created for books\, magazines\, comics\, toys\, and other merchandise. Bagge combined his cartoony drawing style with uncomfortably real Gen X characters\, and the comic books resonated with readers. Book One (Hate 1-15)\, focuses on young Buddy Bradley’s travails in early 1990s Seattle. Book Two focuses on Buddy and his girlfriend Lisa Leavenworth’s move back to Buddy’s native New Jersey (and a switch from black-and-white to full color). Book Three features the final arc of Bagge’s magnum opus\, as Buddy and Lisa become parents (and buy a garbage dump). Each volume\, along with the slipcase\, contains new covers\, endpapers\, title pages\, and other surprises by Bagge. A mix of color and black and white illustrations.\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter Bagge is an American alternative cartoonist whose best-known work includes the comics Hate and Neat Stuff. A graduate of the School of Visual Arts in New York City\, he got his start in comics in the R. Crumb-edited magazine Weirdo. His stories often use black humor and exaggerated cartooning to dramatize the reduced expectations of middle-class American youth. More recently he has written and drawn graphic biographies of Zora Neale Hurston\, Rose Wilder Lane\, and Margaret Sanger\, all published by Drawn and Quarterly. He won two Harvey Awards in 1991\, one for best cartoonist and one for his work on Hate\, was presented with an Inkpot Award at San Diego Comic-Con International in 2010\, and was named a Rockefeller Fellow for Literature in 2014.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEverett True\, aka Jerry Thackray\, is best-known as “the man who invented grunge”\, the critic Kurt Cobain once called “the biggest rock star journalist in the world”. He holds a PhD in Music Journalism and has been a freelance music critic for over 30 years. He has edited\, published and written for numerous magazines and websites in the UK\, US and Australia\, including Melody Maker\, NME\, The Guardian\, Rolling Stone\, MOJO\, Classic Rock and Plan B Magazine. \nHe has written several books on rock music (Nirvana\, Ramones\, The White Stripes) and\, under his stage name The Legend!\, released the first record on Creation Records. Nick Cave described The Legend!’s onstage performance as being “more entertaining than Nina Simone”.

SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Maids Book Launch with Katie Skelly and Alissa Bennett
DESCRIPTION:McNally Jackson Books hosts a virtual book launch for Maids\, the new true-crime graphic novel by Brooklyn cartoonist Katie Skelly! She’ll be in conversation with zinester\, podcaster\, and celebrity death chronicler Alissa Bennet. RSVP and get your signed bookplate edition of the new book here. \n  \n \n  \nLea and Christine are maids. Their mistress is strict. If they are fired\, they will be homeless. Their mornings are for cooking and tidying. Gardening at midday. In the evening\, they smoke cigarettes and reminisce. As the narrative progresses\, it becomes painfully clear that family and religion has failed them. On February 2\, 1933\, they will murder everybody in the house. Both a true crime saga and an allegory of societal collapse\, Maids finds artist Katie Skelly at her most subversively naturalistic. To observe people serving\, day in and day out\, is to become acclimated to the lie that some are born to serve. Everything that is\, will be forever… won’t it? \nKatie Skelly lives and works in New York City. Her previous comics include My Pretty Vampire\, The Agency\, Operation Margarine\, and Nurse Nurse. Skelly holds a B.A. in Art History from Syracuse University and was awarded the Emerging Artist Prize at Cartoon Crossroads Columbus in 2015. \nAlissa Bennett is a director at the Barbara Gladstone Gallery\, and the co-host of the podcast The C-Word with Lena Dunham. She is also a prolific essayist and creator of several zine series\, including Bad Behavior\, Dead Is Better\, and others.
