SUMMARY:[EN] Benjamin Marra launches What We Mean by Yesterday Vol. 1
DESCRIPTION:Join Benjamin Marra\, Librairie D+Q\, and Fantagraphics to launch WHAT WE MEAN BY YESTERDAY VOL 1. The cartoonist will appear in conversation with D+Q Executive Editor Tom Devlin. A signing will follow the presentation.\nWHEN: Tuesday August 20th at 7 pm\nWHERE: Espace Drawn & Quarterly\, 176 Bernard O\nWHAT WE MEAN BY YESTERDAY\nThe story of a man driven to the edge — and beyond — by the world around him. But if he’s the good guy\, then who is the bad guy?\nBruce Barnes is a schoolteacher having yet another shit day. His students are a disrespectful nightmare\, gleefully relishing the misery they put him through. But today is even worse than usual\, and after a particularly grim run-in with a student\, he heads to the break room to bum a smoke of another member of the faculty. After lighting up\, he’s told the cigarette is laced with amphetamines. From there\, Bruce rides his « rage snake » from the classroom to the ends of the cosmos and back — fighting\, fucking\, shooting\, racing\, and tripping his way from one impulsive move to the next. Reminiscent of films like Falling Down and shows like Breaking Bad\, What We Mean By Yesterday is a black comedy descent into madness\, a revenge horror/fantasy that gives new meaning to the phrase « bad trip. »\nWhat We Mean By Yesterday began as a daily comic strip\, one page per day\, posted on Marra’s Instagram (@benjamin_marra). Originally begun as an experiment in drawing faster and looser\, it quickly became one of the more popular pandemic era webcomics\, followed by over 20\,000 readers daily.\n////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\nBENJAMIN MARRA is the author of several acclaimed graphic novels from Fantagraphics\, including Terror Assaulter (O.M.W.O.T.)\, Night Business\, and American Blood. He received a B.F.A. in Illustration from Syracuse University; studied in Florence\, Italy; and earned his M.F.A. degree in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts. He lives in Montreal.\n////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\nEspace Drawn & Quarterly Accessibility information:\n– Our event space uses StopGap.ca ramps in an effort to encourage accessibility. Both the step at the entrance\, followed by a half step and a door have StopGap ramps. The door opens inward and is not automated. Once inside\, there are no additional steps.\n– There is one non-gendered bathroom.\n– It is not a sober space\, our events sometimes offer alcohol.\n♥️ Please email events@drawnandquarterly.com if you have any accessibility needs we can accommodate (for example\, saving you a seat if you have mobility needs) for you to be able to enjoy our events\, worry-free\, and feel free to contact us for any concerns you may have ♥️\n////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\nLibrairie Drawn & Quarterly would like to acknowledge that our events and bookstores are located on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. Many of us refer to Montreal as our home\, but it is named Tiohtiá:ke. It has always been a gathering place for many First Nations and continues to be home to a diverse population of Indigenous peoples. We are grateful that creating and sharing stories has been a part of this land for thousands of years.
