Sturm, James – Return to Normal

Website

Return to Normal

‘m not sure exactly where to get this, but try e-mailing Drawn and Quarterly (click on the title to get to the home page) if you’re interested. There have been a ton of books about 9/11 since it happened, and I was really looking forward to seeing what James Sturm has to say about it. This is the danger of getting stuff before it comes out, because this is about trying to get a reaction out of us, not seeing his reaction. There are a few pictures and apparently it’s being used in classrooms to try and get kids to open up about the day. A noble idea and I hope it’s working well, but that’s not what I was looking for. I know what my reaction was, so this book is a tiny, expensive waste of time for me. Maybe some of you can get more out of it, I don’t know. It looks nice, I’ll give him that. No story means pretty much no interest from me though…
