You need to tell me how that absinthe one is.
Is it fiction history or real history?

Real history. I read about it in an old entry of lord_whimsy's, and I was intrigued, so I made a request and it came in really quickly!

I was just looking at the graphic fiction anthology today. I was looking at the Absinthe book about a month ago.

The beginning with Art Spigelman's and Chris Ware's responses to Charles Schulz retiring/dying are really powerful. The rest is basically a sampler of who's who in "graphic fiction": Spigelman, Ware, Seth, Clowes, Crumb, Pekar, etc. Either way, it looks like a great read.
