The Believer Art Issue

The new Believer just came in the door here at the Librairie. This month is the Art Issue, and it looks amazing. It had us scratching our heads, because we would have sworn up and down that the cover was done by Chris Ware. Way to keep us on our toes, Charles Burns!

Inside you'll find a fold-out double-sided poster by Jerry Moriarty (see Julien's stamp of approval here), as well as poetry by Derek Walcott, a conversation between Moriarty and Chris Ware, and an interview with Aline Kominsky-Crumb.

Plus! Exciting news from the folks at The Believer: starting immediately, they're going to include a monthly spread of comics. Alvin Buenaventura (he of Buenaventura Books) is curating, with regular contributions by Anders Nilsen, Charles Burns, Ron Rege Jr. and others.
