“Deliciously drawn (with fragments of collage worked into
each page), insightful and bubbling with delight in the
process of artistic creation. A+” —Salon
How do objects summon memories? What do real images feel
like? For decades, these types of questions have permeated
the pages of Lynda Barry’s compositions, with words
attracting pictures and conjuring places through a pen that
first and foremost keeps on moving. What It Is demonstrates
a tried-and-true creative method that is playful, powerful,
and accessible to anyone with an inquisitive wish to write
or to remember. Composed of completely new material, each
page of Barry’s first Drawn & Quarterly book is a full-
color collage that is not only a gentle guide to this
process but an invigorating example of exactly what it
is: “The ordinary is extraordinary.”
