Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week - November 3, 2017
In the weekly Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week, the Montreal bookstore recommends several new works of fiction, art books, periodicals, and comics.
Librairie Drawn & Quarterly is one of Montreal's premiere independent bookstores.
The Unquotable Trump
by Richard Sikoryak
A master satire from the master satirist, The Unquotable Trump reimagines famous comics covers, with the POTUS as the ultimate super-villain. Twenty-five percent of net proceeds will be donated to the American Civil Liberties Union!
Kitaro’s Strange Adventures
by Shigeru Mizuki
New D+Q! We are introduced to new yokai monsters, and the escapades of Shigeru Mizuki’s beloved, titular character get zanier in the fourth installment of the series.
As We Have Always Done
by Leanne Simpson
Subtitled “Indigenous Freedom through Radical Resistance”, Leanne Simpson’s As We Have Always Done charts the Indigenous struggle against deep-rooted, colonialist logic across North America.
Penelope
by Sue Goyette
Sue Goyette’s latest poetry book is an unusual telling of the story of Odysseus, in that is doesn’t tell his story at all, but rather that of Penelope, his wife, who undertakes an epic act of waiting.
Sports and Pastimes
by Jean-Philippe Baril Guérard
Springboarding off of Erik Satie's work of the same name, Montreal playwright and author Jean-Philippe Baril Guérard’s latest novel is staccato and teeth-bared.
