Building Stories

    (Pantheon, 2012)

From the publisher:
"Chris Ware's Building Stories is the rarest kind of brilliance; it is simultaneously heartbreaking, hliarious, shockingly intimate and deeply insightful. There isn't a graphic artist alive or dead who has used the form this wonderfully to convey the passage of time, loneliness, longing, frustration or bliss.

It is the reader's choice where and how to begin this monumental work--the only regret you will have in starting it is knowing that it will end."
- J. J. Abrams
