Nick Drnaso: Drawing Inspiration
If graphic novels have historically been overlooked by the literary establishment, then Nick Drnaso’s work is changing things. Sabrina was the first graphic novel to be longlisted for the Booker Prize. Now Acting Class confirms Drnaso as one of today’s most insightful, empathetic visual storytellers. Drnaso joins us in Edinburgh to discuss the book and present a short film commissioned by the Book Festival, Granta and Drawn & Quarterly, showing him at work in his Chicago studio.
