{"product_id":"books-the-end-by-anders-nilsen","title":"The End","description":"\u003cb\u003eAssembled from work done in Anders Nilsen's sketchbooks over the course of the year following the death of his fiancée, Cheryl Weaver, in 2005, \u003ci\u003eThe End\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of short strips about loss, paralysis, waiting, and transformation -- a physical manifestation of grief.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe End\u003c\/i\u003e is a concept album in different styles, a meditation on paying attention, an abstracted autobiography and a metaphysical travelogue, reflecting the progress of his struggle to reconcile the great upheaval of a death, and to find a new life on the other side. The book blends Nilsen's disparate styles, from iconic simplicity to collaged art to finely rendered pieces. \u003cp\u003eThis new edition of \u003ci\u003eThe End\u003c\/i\u003e is substantially expanded and revised -- it is almost twice as long as the original edition -- incorporating new work from the past 15 years that adds greater perspective to an already intimate window into the way we grieve, a process that can span decades. The new material includes added content from the original sketchbooks, over a dozen pages of new comics, a new afterword by the author, additional notes, and over 20 pages of Cheryl Weaver's work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53671259668753,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781683965633.jpg?v=1781515534","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-the-end-by-anders-nilsen","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
