City of Glass: The Graphic Novel

You may have heard of The New York Trilogy, a set of novels by Paul Auster, one of my favorite New York authors.  Paul Karasik and David Mazzucchelli brought a whole new dimension to one book in the trilogy, City of Glass, when they adapted it into a graphic novel.  Every time I read it, I am amazed at how perfectly their graphics interweave with the text.  It is an absolute must-read.  I found the excerpt below, my favorite page in the book, in Stephen Frug’s blog post about the graphic novel.
