Chester Brown to run in the imminent Federal election

So official Friend Of The Beguiling Chester Brown is hoping to run for MP of Trinity-Spadina in the upcoming Federal election, for The Libertarian Party. Chester needs 100 signatures from eligible voters in the Trinity-Spadina riding to get him on the ballot and we’ve got a nomination form here at The Beguiling. If this is your riding you can sign up to get Chester on the ballot from now until Friday at the main desk of the store, if you’re so inclined. Please note: You can nominate Chester and then decide to vote for someone who might actually get elected.

We’re sending this out because we like Chester’s work a great deal, and it might be nice to have a really lovely election poster plastered all over town for a change.

Guy Delisle’s Burma Chronicles

The newest travelogue from the acclaimed author of Pyongyang and Shenzhen is now available at the Beguiling.

In his signature minimal animated style Guy Delisle relates his experiences in Burma (also known as Myanmar), a country famed for it’s brutal control and censorship. These stories show rural poverty, drug addiction, and social struggle but also culture, human resilience, and humor.

Drawn and Quarterly’s presented and production is top notch as always on this 208 page unjacketed hardcover.

New Comics Delayed

Due to a miscommunication between Diamond Comics Distribution and their Canadian warehouse today’s comics and books have been considerably delayed. We expect to have new releases on the shelves by early afternoon but chaos reigns until then.
