Do you know if the Grandville books ever came up for Sidewise discussion? I don't remember ever seeing a graphic novel on the list, but would they be eligible?

A review of the Casebook of Stamford Hawksmoor by Boyd Tonkin: "Counterfactual history has seldom painted as rich an alternative past as Talbot’s β€” and never a wittier one. Reverse engineered chronology aside, the visual gags on every page delight."

"Should the present have the right to β€œerase history”? Should we cancel the past? These are the questions debated by strollers in London’s grandest public space β€” Austerlitz Square, of course β€” in Bryan Talbot’s new graphic novel, The Casebook of Stamford Hawksmoor. "

Forthright and fearless, she mingled with other radical thinkers of her time and travelled widely, including to Paris, alone – into the Reign of Terror.

In 1792, her manifesto, Vindication of the Rights of Woman, took the world by storm: β€œIt is time to effect a revolution in female manners – time to restore to them their dignity”.

@bryan-talbot.bsky.social Let Bryan know I (re)watched the 2000AD documentary last night.

I also met him in the 90's at a Peterborough Sci-Fi fest where I bought some original artwork (From the Sandman comic) and it's still a pride of joy for me.

I’ve often thought about doing a book about Mary Wollstonecraft, but now I don’t have to, because the subject is in good hands.
