Long Story Short by Lisa Brown

Acclaimed author and illustrator Lisa Brown (The Airport Book, Goldfish Ghost) brings her sly sense of humor to comic-strip condensations of classic and contemporary literature.
"You probably began this quarantine with dreams of rereading Moby-Dick or PersuasionBut if you’re like me, you’re finding it hard to concentrate on anything more than a tweet. Fortunately, Lisa Brown has just published Long Story Short, a witty collection of cartoon book reviews."
Ron Charles, The Washington Post

"A collection of three-panel comics that slyly condense hefty works of literature."
Lucy Knisley, author and illustrator of Relish: My Life in the Kitchen

"It’s lighter than CliffsNotes and quite possibly more entertaining than the originals (the horror, the horror!)"
