From the beginning, Chris Ware: Conversations distinguishes itself by filling a gap in comics scholarship by focusing on oeuvre rather than on individual texts. Braithwaites's careful selection not only ensures that hard-to-find early interviews are not lost in time, but also showcases a wide range of interviews--academic and public, live and virtual--that Ware has given since the publication of Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid of Earth . With interest in Ware's work on the rise, this book could not have come at a better time., If there is one thing that these interviews, and Chris Ware through them, shows us, it is that we have as good a chance, or better, of understanding the artist through their works.
