Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 292 pages. Published in 2011. The author/graphic artist's memoir on subject. One of the greatest graphic novels of our time. The true First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, of which there are several. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Chester Brown's "Paying For It: A Comic-Strip Memoir About Being A John". An unsparingly frank memoir that swerves seamlessly into a passionate polemic on the benefits and advantages of legalized prostitution. Indisputably, a masterpiece, it also comes with a supportive Introduction by his precursor/champion, Robert Crumb. "Chester Brown has never shied away from tackling controversial subjects in his work. In 'The Playboy' (1992), he explored his personal history with pornography. His graphic novel, 'Louis Riel' (2003), was a biographical examination of an extreme political figure that cemented Brown's reputation as an innovator. 'Paying For It' is a natural progression: It combines the personal and sexual aspects of his autobiographical work with the political polemics of 'Louis Riel'. Offers an entirely contemporary exploration of sex work, complete with a surprise ending" (Publisher's blurb). "An Appendix arguing that a system where paying for sex is preferable to romance-based methods is unlikely to persuade many readers" (Publishers Weekly). An absolute "must-have" title for Chester Brown collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have very serious flaws (because they were pored over) or are in multiple subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the most brilliant graphic novelists of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 1770460489. no.
