BIG QUESTIONS is a NY Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year

Congratulations to Anders Nilsen, who, after landing on the Amazon and Publishers Weekly best of 2011 lists, BIG QUESTIONS is the only graphic novel to have merited the distinction of being one of the 100 New York Times Notable Books of 2011 for adults. The grey lady's original review of BIG QUESTIONS by Douglas Wolk is here. 2011 was perhaps the most competitive year for high quality graphic novels since the graphic novel golden age started, and it is nothing short of rewarding to see a book as rich, layered and yes, complex, as BIG QUESTIONS get the attention is so rightly deserves. I think it's a definite sign of the maturation of the not just the medium, but of the critical attention the medium receives. It's a fascinating time to be in comics. Lastly, congrats Anders, BIG QUESTIONS is a true work of art on so many levels, thanks for letting D+Q publish it. It's amazing, and you're amazing!
