| book description |

Neil Gaiman (b. 1960) reigns as one of the most critically decorated and popular authors of the last fifty years. Perhaps best known as the writer of the Harvey, Eisner, and World Fantasy Awardâ€“winning series The Sandman, Gaiman quickly became equally renowned in literary circles for Neverwhere, Coraline, and the award-winning American Gods, as well as the Newbery and Carnegie Medalâ€“winning The Graveyard Book. For adults, children, comics readers, and viewers of the BBCâ€™s Doctor Who, Gaimanâ€™s writing has crossed the borders of virtually all media, making him a celebrity around the world. Despite Gaimanâ€™s incredible contributions to comics, his work remains underrepresented in sustained fashion in comics studies. In this book, the thirteen essays and two interviews with Gaiman and his frequent collaborator, artist P. Craig Russell, examine the work of Gaiman and his many illustrators. The essays discuss Gaimanâ€™s oeuvre regarding the qualities that make his work unique in his eschewing of typical categories, his proclamations to â€œmake good art,â€ and his own constant efforts to do so however the genres and audiences may slip into one another. The Artistry of Neil Gaiman forms a complicated picture of a man who has always seemed fully assembled virtually from the start of his career, but only came to feel comfortable in his own voice far later in life.
