Join Edgartown Books in celebrating Independent Bookstore Day with Paul Karasik, creator of the graphic novel adaptation of Paul Auster's The New York Trilogy and an internationally-recognized cartoonist and teacher.

From award-winning novelist Paul Auster comes the graphic depiction of his deeply beloved series, The New York Trilogy, a postmodern take on detective and noir fiction. In 1994, Paul Auster’s City of Glass was adapted into a graphic novel and became an immediate cult classic, but City of Glass was only the first novel in a series of books, Auster’s acclaimed New York Trilogy and graphic novel readers have been waiting for years for the other two tales to be translated into comics. Now the wait is over.

Two-time Eisner Award winner Paul Karasik began his career as the Associate Editor of Art at Spiegelman and Francoise Mouly’s RAW magazine. His work has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The New Yorker, and The Vineyard Gazette. He is a year-round Vineyard resident.
