Be a Nose! (Hardcover)

Art Spiegelman—the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Maus and father of the modern graphic novel—invites you into the raw, unedited pages of his private creative world!

Known as the creator of Wacky Packs and the Garbage Pail Kids, and the man who redefined an entire medium (though he’s still demanding a blood test for that title), Art Spiegelman presents this warts-and-all reproduction of his personal sketchbooks. Be a Nose! offers a rare, candid glimpse into the secret scribblings, visual experiments, and fleeting thoughts of a relentlessly innovative American original.

The results are as sharp and funny as the man himself, providing an intimate look at the evolution of his style and the birth of his most provocative ideas. From underground comix to high-brow literary achievement, these sketches capture the restless energy of a mind that never stops questioning the boundaries of the page.

A masterclass in visual thinking and a must-have for any collector of 20th-century art! Experience the genius of Art Spiegelman in its most unfiltered form.
