Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden's groundbreaking work \u003cem\u003eHow to Read Nancy\u003c\/em\u003e ingeniously isolates the separate building blocks of the language of comics through the deconstruction of a single strip. No other book on comics has taken such a simple yet methodical approach to laying bare how the comics medium really works. No other book of any kind has taken a single work by any artist and minutely (and entertainingly) pulled it apart like this. \u003cem\u003eHow to Read Nancy\u003c\/em\u003e is a completely new approach towards deep-reading art. In addition, \u003cem\u003eHow to Read Nancy\u003c\/em\u003e is a thoroughly researched history of how comics are made, from their creation at the drawing board to their ultimate destination at the bookstore. Textbook, art book, monogram, dissection, \u003cem\u003eHow to Read Nancy\u003c\/em\u003e is a game changer in understanding how the \"simplest\" drawings grab us and never leave. Perfect for students, academics, scholars, and casual fans.","brand":"Fantagraphics Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42896441835775,"sku":"9781606993613","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/products\/9781606993613-us-300.jpg?v=1654470701","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781606993613","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
