The Little Man: Short Strips 1980-1995 (PB)
Chester Brown
"A note of pure genius."--Rain Taxi Review of Books
"It might seem jarring for a book to begin with "The Toilet Paper Revolt" and end with "My Mom Was a Schizophrenic", but Brown pulls it off by mixing equal parts surrealism, violence, and contemplation. As a whole it tells another story: the maturing of an artist."--Details
"Outrageous, surreal, hushed, mystical and, often, funny as hell."--Detroit Metro Times
"They universally exhibit Brown's inimitable mix of intimate and surreal."--Now

Louis and his right-hand man Gabriel Dumont flee the scene to regroup with the surviving rebels and plot their next move against the government.
But Fortune has abandoned the Metis cause and soon Louis is in chains--brought to trial for treason. Louis is a passionate and inspired leader but his erratic behaviour makes everyone, even his own people, believe he is vainglorious and mad. Louis is not just on trial for his life--treason is punishable by death--but he must defend himself against the verdict of history.

Louis Riel: A Comic-Strip Biography softcover
Chester Brown
Chester Brown reinvents the comic book medium to create the critically acclaimed historical biography Louis Riel, winning the Harvey Awards for best writing and best graphic novel for his compelling, meticulous, and dispassionate retelling of the charismatic, and perhaps insane, nineteenth-century Metis leader. Brown cooly documents with dramatic subtlety the violent rebellion on the Canadian prairie led by Riel, who some regard a martyr who died in the name freedom, while others consider him a treacherous murderer.
"It has the thoroughness of a history book yet reads with the personalized vision of a novel."--Time Magazine
"If you love to read a gripping story, if you are awed by the talent of an artist, then look no further: Chester Brown's Louis Riel is comix history in the making, and with it, history never looked so good."--The Globe and Mail Book Review
"The starkly told story of a crucial figure in Canada's history--yet one whom most Americans have probably never heard of. It's a credit to Brown's plainspoken artistry and flair for narrative that it's a page-turner till the end."--The Boston Phoenix
"This is an ingenious comic and a major achievement." --Publishers Weekly Starred Review
NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS:
If you received a paperback copy of Louis Riel from the first printing that has a defective binding, please tear the cover off, mail it to us, and we will send you a replacement.

I Never Liked You: The New Definitive Edition
Chester Brown
(200 p, B/W, 6x9")
A harrowing memoir of loss and the struggle to connect, Brown's story is told with a spare poetic elegance. A self-absorbed teenager, Chester Brown strays into the difficult territory of friendship and early love while at home there is a slowly building crisis over his mother's mental health. Emotionally intense, the story veers unsteadily between the extremes of eerie detachment and sudden desperate outbursts of need. A complex and disturbing true story told with a nuanced, queasy visual style that lingers in the mind long after the book has been put away.
"A minimalist, but haunting memoir of the artist's troubled adolescence." --New York Times Book Review
"Despite his Canadian citizenship, Chester Brown should be declared a national treasure." --The Onion
"A study in adolescent socialization and the peculiar combination of budding sexuality, self-obsessed dreaminess and downright mean-spiritedness that epitomizes the teenage years." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
