1st Edition - 2nd and later printings.

Based on the stories by David Thoreau. Adapted by John Porcellino.

"I am convinced, both by faith and experience, that to maintain one's self on this Earth is not a hardship, but a pasttime, if we will live simply and wisely." So said Henry David Thoreau in 1845 when he began his famous experiment of living on Walden Pond. In this graphic masterpiece, John Porcellino uses only the visionary words of Thoreau himself to tell the story of those two years off the beaten track. The pared-down text focuses on Thoreau's most profound ideas, and Porcellino's fresh, simple pictures bring the philosopher's sojourn at Walden to cinematic life. This graphic treatment provides a vivid new interpretation of Thoreau's Walden and presents a contemporary look at Thoreau's call to slow down in an ever-accelerating world, a message that is as relevant today as it was 150 years ago.

2nd and later printings. By Lynda Barry. Lynda Barry is one of the pre-eminent cartoonists of the past generation, and in What It Is she demonstrates a tried-and-true creative method that is playful, powerful, and accessible to anyone with an inquisitive wish to write or remember. Bursting with full-color drawings, comics, and collages, autobiographical sections and gentle creative guidance, each page is an invigorating example of exactly what it is: "The ordinary is extraordinary." Lynda Barry explores the depths of the inner and outer realms of creation and imagination, where play can be serious, monsters have purpose, and not knowing is an answer unto itself. How do objects summon memories? What do real images feel like? These types of questions permeate the pages of What It Is, with words attracting pictures and conjuring places through a pen that first and foremost keeps on moving. Her insight and sincerity will tackle the most persistent of inhibitions, calling back every kid who quit drawing to again feel alive at the experiential level. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11 1/2-in., 212 pages, full color. Cover price $24.95.
