Description - Soft City by Chris Ware
The only graphic novel by the legendary Norwegian pop artist Pushwagner -- lost for decades, and never before published in the US -- Soft City is a scathing masterpiece in the tradition of Brazil and A Brave New World, but with an off-kilter beauty all its own.
The legendary Norwegian pop artist Pushwagner's scathing comics masterpiece-lost for decades, and never before published in the U.S.-is an epic vision of a single day in a world gone wrong- a brightly smiling, disturbingly familiar dystopia of towering skyscrapers, omnipresent surveillance, and endless distant war. "CLEAN BOMB THE HAPPY-HAPPY WAY," blares the morning paper. "Heil Hilton!" barks an overlord on the news.
Welcome to Soft City. Now don't be late for work.
This NYRC edition is a giant-sized hardcover extra-thick paper and spot-color throughout.
