Books To Read: Best Graphic Novels April 2015
Posted: February 15, 2015

Blimey! April is bursting with alluring releases, and here’s my cull, an attempt to narrow the choices down to a more manageable shortlist for your consideration. You might choose biographies, here of Pablo Picasso, Gavrilo Princip, The Smiths or Han Shan and Shih Te, two of China’s greatest poets, or a fanciful alternative past of Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage.
Or if you prefer first-person autobiography, this month’s offering range from the classic naval gazing (sorry!) of sailor Sam Glanzman, to Israeli newspaper strip cartoonist Asaf Hanuka’s The Realist (above, from Archaia Press), recording life’s moments big and small, one page at a time. And of course, there’s plenty of ‘pure’ fiction and fantasy transporting you back to the American Civil War to very possible near-futures of overcrowding or rising sea levels. Take a stroll and a scroll through my A to Z of April’s absolute showers, and join me each month as we take a glance ahead together. Read my recommendations for April 2015 here…
