This month we'll be at Waterstones where Alex Fitch will be talking with comics creators Veronika Muchitsch, Dan Locke and Alex Frith, celebrating the publication of two graphic novels:
Cyberman (published by Myriad, 26 May) by Veronika Muchitsch is a graphic documentary of the life of a blogger in his fifties living in a small town in Finland who for nearly six years has been streaming his life online twenty-four hours, seven days a week. Even though he hardly leaves his apartment, nor has visitors.
Two Heads (Bloomsbury, 2022) is a journey through the mysteries of the human brain from a renowned husband-and-wife team of cognitive neuroscientists, professors Uta and Chris Frith, working with their son Alex and artist Daniel Locke. They examine how research is now focused on the fact we are a social species, whose brains have evolved to work cooperatively.
