The Quiet Place Book Club: ‘Sabrina’ by Nick Drnaso

Join us for the August meeting at The Quiet Place Book Club, where we will discuss Nick Drnaso's graphic novel Sabrina (Granta Books, 2018).

 

The follow-up to Nick Drnaso's Beverly, winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, Sabrina is a work of bleak brilliance that captures a modern world devoid of personal interaction and responsibility, where relationships are stripped of intimacy through glowing computer screens. Presenting an indictment of our modern state, Drnaso contemplates the dangers of a fake-news climate. Timely and articulate, Sabrina leaves you gutted, searching for meaning in the aftermath of disaster. 

"Nick Drnaso's Sabrina is the best book -- in any medium -- I have read about our current moment. It is a masterpiece, beautifully written and drawn, possessing all the political power of polemic and yet simultaneously all the delicacy of truly great art. It scared me. I loved it." -- Zadie Smith

You can purchase a copy of Sabrina from Fox Lane Books.

Please register in advance for this meeting.

Everyone is welcome!
