It's also made the American Library Association's most challenged books list twice. Her 2014 comic This One Summer, a sapphic indie coming-of-age graphic novel (another a collaboration with Jillian), is the only graphic novel to receive the Caldecott Honor in the 80-year history of the awards. Tamaki didn’t stumble into comics until after collaborating with award-winning artist and cousin Jillian Tamaki ( Skim) on a series of mini-comics for a Canadian indie zine. After that, she was hooked. Even before Mariko Tamaki (Dark Detective, Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass) was known as a New York Times best-selling author, before she earned her Master’s degree in women studies, and before she founded her new imprint Surely Books with Abrams Comic Arts, she was a queer activist and feminist writer.īack in 1996, Tamaki co-founded Pretty Porky and PIssed Off in her native Toronto, Ontario, a fat activism and feminist performance art collective that used their bodies as “modes of resistance” to speak out against political, social, and cultural discrimination.

Jessie Burton is an award-winning novelist of four books, including “ The Miniaturist” and its new companion novel, “ The House of Fortune.” This Friday on Big Books and Bold Ideas, host Kerri Miller sat down with Burton and talked about what it’s like to write a sequel and how looking back is often the key to moving forward. It’s a delicious return to austere but wealthy 18th century Amsterdam, told through Burton’s sensual lens. Nella herself was married off at age 18, leading to the scandal that enthralled readers in “The Miniaturist.” What will happen this time? Will Nella revisit that sin on her headstrong niece? Or will Thea’s own secrets collide with the family’s? The irony is thick, although Nella doesn’t see it. And Nella has pinned all her hopes on Thea marrying well. Her niece, Thea, is grown and turning 18. Many of the same characters inhabit her world - with one addition. Nella still lives in the house she inherited from her dead husband. Almost 20 years have passed since we first met her in “ The Miniaturist,” Jessie Burton’s wildly popular first book. When “ The House of Fortune” opens, Nella Brandt is 37. As Gentle, Judith, and Pie 'oh' pah travel the Imajica, they uncover a trail of crimes and intimate betrayals, leading them to a revelation so startling that it changes reality forever. Imajica features a large cast of fascinating characters (including the androgynous shapeshifting assassin Pie'oh'pah) and spans multiple worlds, each one more fantastically bizarre than the last. They are worlds that are utterly unlike our own, but are ruled, peopled, and haunted by species whose lives are intricately connected with ours. That dimension is one of five in the great system called Imajica. Imajica is a novel of vast panoramas and intimate, obsessive passions of visionary splendors and heart-stopping terrors. At its heart lies the sensualist and master art forger, Gentle, whose life unravels when he encounters Judith Odell, whose power to influence the destinies of men is vaster than she knows, and Pie 'oh' pah, an alien assassin who comes from a hidden dimension. In the Imajica, they’ll meet a diverse group of beings, ranging from a wonderful ‘person’ that’s gender fluid to others that have hands for a head. The Imajica: five Dominions of which four are. Imajica is an epic beyond compare: vast in conception, obsessively detailed in execution, and apocalyptic in its resolution. Bestselling author of The Great and Secret ShowClive Barker once again enters the realm of pure imagination. "Rich in plot twists, byzantine intrigues and hidden secrets, Imajica is a Chinese puzzle box constructed on a universal scale.Barker has an unparalleled talent for envisioning other worlds." - Washington Post Book Worldįrom master storyteller Clive Barker comes an epic tale of myth, magic, and forbidden passion Suddenly, four sisters who have been fervently pursuing success and their own lives - on opposite sides of the world - reunite to share one New York brownstone, to support each other and their father, and to pick up the pieces while one sister struggles to heal her shattered body and soul.
