Neon Lit!: City of Glass (Graphic Mystery) Book
I cannot possibly offer enough praise for David Mazzucchelli and Paul Karasik 's adaptation of City of Glass.

The treatment of the first speech by the crazy antagonist, Peter Stillman--in which the word balloons trail from random objects such as a broken television and a bottle of ink--is brilliant. Neon Lit: Paul Auster's City of Glass deftly illustrates why comics is a perfect format for exploring fictions about text: the words become visible objects of the story.Read More
