Habibi is Washington Examiner's best graphic novel

The best books of 2011

 The Washington Examiner December 11 2011

Marcela Valdes picks the top 10 books of 2011 for The Washington Examiner.

"Habibi"

Craig Thompson. Pantheon, $35 (672p)

Humorous, heart-breaking, and visually stunning, Thompson's graphic novel tells the epic love story of two Middle Eastern slaves. Intended for grown-ups, this book contains some nudity, but it's real daring lies in the way it braids together the religious tales of both Islam and Christianity.
