Pictures at a revolution- acclaimed graphic novelist James Albon (Her Bark and Her Bite) explores the role of the artist in a frighteningly familiar near-future of tyrannical regimes and popular revolts.
James Albon is a British illustrator living in Lyon, France. His clients include the Folio Society, The Guardian, the Wall Street Journal and WIRED. He studied illustration at Edinburgh College of Art, went on to a postgraduate scholarship at the Royal Drawing School in London, and was awarded the Gwen May award from the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers in 2012.
“A brilliantly drawn, heart-rending drama of modern life in
troubled times, so contemporary that it could be off the streets of
any city today.” — Paul Buhle, author of Marxism in the United
States
“Channeling Marc Chagall, James Albon has created one of this
year’s most insightful political satires... A Shining Beacon offers
insightful political clarity wrapped in the warmth of humanity.” —
Comics Beat
"A fantastic book, extrapolating British current affairs into a
dystopian nightmare. It’s on point, superbly written, joyously
illustrated and a pleasure to read." — Grovel
