WARE, Chris.

Item Number: 123992

New York : Pantheon Books, 2000.

First edition of the author’s inventive first book, which Publishers Weekly called “graphically inventive, wonderfully realized.” Octavo, original boards, illustrated. Signed and dated by Chris Ware with a drawing of stars. Fine in a fine dust jacket.

“This haunting and unshakable book will change the way you look at your world. Ware captures landscapes made to flatten emotion—a clinic shrouded in snow, a sterile apartment complex—and yet shows the reader the meaning and even beauty in every glimpse from a highway, every snippet of small talk" (Time).
