About This Book

I cannot possibly offer enough praise for David Mazzucchelli and
Paul Karasik 's adaptation of City of Glass. While some critics found it
to be a dry choice of books to turn into a comics, I think the interplay
between image and text only heightens the original metafictional
narrative. The treatment of the first speech by the crazy antagonist,
Peter Stillman--in which the word balloons trail from random objects
such as a broken television and a bottle of ink--is brilliant. Neon Lit:
Paul Auster's City of Glass deftly illustrates why comics is a perfect
format for exploring fictions about text: the words become visible
objects of the story.
