Summary

NOMINATED FOR THE EISNER AWARD

‘The outstanding graphic novelist of his generation.’ Big Issue
‘Adrian Tomine has more ideas in twenty panels than novelists have in a lifetime.’ ZADIE SMITH
‘Tomine has both talent and a writer’s eye for the truth.’ NICK HORNBY

Adrian Tomine began his professional career at the age of sixteen, and in the decades since, has made a name for himself as a bestselling graphic novelist, screenwriter, and New Yorker cover artist. Now, for the first time, he’s taking questions. Part personal history, part masterclass (illustrated throughout with photos, outtakes, and step-by-step process images), Q & A is an unprecedented look into Tomine’s working methods and a trove of insight, guidance, and advice for aspiring and practising creatives alike.

Critic Reviews

Tomine, one of the biggest names in indie comics . . . really delves into what it is like to dedicate your life to comics.

Vanity Fair

Critic Reviews

The outstanding graphic novelist of his generation.

Big Issue

Critic Reviews

Part advice manual for aspiring cartoonists, part memoir. Tomine reflects candidly and wittily on topics including the solitary nature of cartooning, writing to artist idols, parenthood’s influence on his art, and adapting a graphic novel into a screenplay.

The New Yorker

Critic Reviews

Q&A is something of a how-to book [by one of] the most idiosyncratic and interesting comics creators around [as well as] an impressionistic self-portrait . . . As in his graphic work, Tomine is self-deprecating and often very funny.

Los Angeles Times

Critic Reviews

Perfect for anyone who’s a curious, budding creative spirit.

San Francisco Chronicle

Critic Reviews

Delightfully inspiring.
