![]()
One Thursday: January 15 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET Online
Price:
$50 per person (10% off for members)
Lecture and Discussion. This online class will be streamed live and recorded for later viewing.
The late Paul Auster's New York Trilogy is among his most beloved masterworks. Now all three tales have been adapted into graphic novels in a single volume by two-time Eisner Award winner and New Yorker cartoonist, Paul Karasik, with the aid of David Mazzucchelli ("Asterios Polyp") and Lorenzo Mattotti (New Yorker cover artist).
Join Karasik for an in-depth look into this unusual detective novel triptych, exploring themes of identity, language, and the nature of reality. Along with our discussion of the novel, we will also delve into the nature of graphic novel adaptation—how it works, what parameters are put in place, the working relationship between author and illustrator.
Although not required, participation in this class would be deeply enhanced by reading either or both Auster's original prose, New York Trilogy, as well as the graphic novel adaptation.
