By: Christina Mancuso Jul. 30, 2013
The Graphic Canon Vol. 3, the immense finale to the three-volume anthology pairing classic and contemporary world literature with comic artists and illustrators, has just debuted at #4 on the New York Times bestseller list for paperback graphic books for the week of July 14th.
In Volume 3: From Heart of Darkness to Hemingway to Infinite Jest you'll feast your eyes on new full-page illustrations for 1984, Brave New World, The Doors of Perception, Waiting for Godot, One Hundred Years of Solitude, The Bell Jar, On the Road, Lord of the Flies, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, and works by artists such as Robert Crumb, Dame Darcy, Ted Rall, Peter Kuper, Molly Crabapple, Tara Seibel, Zak Smith, Matt Kish, and more. These are 576 over-sized full color pages of the literature that has shaped the 20th century.
The Graphic Canon Volume 3 was recently called "The Most Beautiful Book of 2013" by Publishers Weekly and was featured in The Daily Beast, HTML Giant, Comics Review and Geek Dad.
I hope you'll help us keep spreading the word about this amazing collection of art and literature.
The Boxed Set with all three volumes comes out this October and includes a poster and a collector's slipcase.
