Join Seven Stories Press and Small Demons for a unique literary event sponsored by the Brooklyn Book Festival
Presented by Seven Stories Press
Join Seven Stories Press and Small
Demons on Tuesday, September 18th
at The Bell House for a unique literary
event sponsored by the Brooklyn Book
Festival. The event features a
multimedia presentation of The
Graphic Canon, a three-volume
anthology of classic world literature
adapted by artists and illustrators,
called the “graphic publishing literary
event of the year” (Publisher’s Weekly)
and “an exciting new benchmark for
comics” (Library Journal). The Graphic
Canon is the brainchild of Russ Kick, a
bestselling author/anthologist who
embarked on a colossal project to re-
tell the literature of the world in
comics and visuals. All together the
three volumes feature over 200 pieces
of literature, retold by 150 different
artists and illustrators.
Art from all three volumes of The
Graphic Canon will be presented by
Seven Stories publisher Dan Simon and
as well as contributors Seymour
Chwast (The Divine Comedy, Vol. 1),
Shawn Cheng (a Brothers Grimm fairy
tale, Vol. 2), and Seth Tobocman (a
Frederick Douglass speech, Vol. 2).
The Graphic Canon Volume 1: From
The Epic of Gilgamesh to Shakespeare
to Dangerous Liaisons (released May
22) and The Graphic Canon Volume 2:
From “Kubla Khan” to the Bronte
Sisters to The Picture of Dorian Gray
(being released October 2) will be on
sale and the artists will be available to
sign copies after the event. The
Graphic Canon Volume 3: From Heart
of Darkness to Hemingway to Infinite
Jest is being released in March 2013.
Small Demons is a Los Angeles based
company that believes powerful and
interesting things can happen when
you connect all the details of books.
They will be using their expertise to
craft an entirely unprecedented
multimedia experience connecting the
people, places, landscapes, sounds,
and references between many of
classic pieces of literature included in
all three volumes of The Graphic
Canon.
For more information or to arrange an
interview with any of the artists please
