The inner worlds of Charles Burns Entretien de Xavier Guilbert

  • Xavier, I wonder if by any chance you would know why Chiisakobe hasn’t been published in English yet. I know it was released in French, Spanish and that there’s even a German version on its way, but no sign of an English version, as far as I know.

  • Brilliant text, mister Moura. If I had read it at the time of its publication I should have quoted from it in my recent PhD in the arts, where I do treat the question of comics as a possible 'minor litterature', following Deleuze and Guattari on Kafka. https://sbastien-conard.squarespace.com/texts/ http://sebastienconard.be
