The Next Day is a ground-breaking graphic novel, constructed from interviews with survivors of near-fatal suicide attempts. In this poetic and profound philosophical exploration, illustrated by acclaimed small-press legend John Porcellino ("A master at miniature poignance," Entertainment Weekly), four diverse participants each answer the same key questions about life, the decision to end it, and what comes after...The Next Day is being simultaneously developed and released as a separate interactive animated on-line experience, co-produced by the prestigious National Film Board of Canada (recipient of 70 Academy Award nominations). It is an exciting new hybrid of documentary film, animation, comic book and interactive storytelling to release in May 2011.Praise for John Porcellino:"Porcellino creates some of the most thoughtful, intelligent, sympathetic & beautiful comix in America" (TIME)"A master at miniature poignance." (Entertainment Weekly)Praise for The Next Day:"The Next Day project doesn?t sugarcoat the difficulties required to face and overcome to get to those years; instead, it shows that others -- who may be very much like you -- have managed to get there." (School Library Journal's Adult Books 4 Teens blog)"As a rule, Open Book doesn?t post reviews or recommendations, but I am going to break that rule. If you are someone who is prone to moodiness, if you sometimes feel like life has kicked your ass so hard there?s no possible way you could ever recuperate, if you?ve ever felt so profoundly alone that, even for a moment, you questioned your own tangible existence -- in other words, if you're a human being -- I urge you to buy a copy of The Next Day. It is a sublimely beautiful, haunting and viscerally moving book." (Open Book Toronto)"The Next Day is intimate and accessible; it is compassionate, but unsentimental: the authors wisely don't try to suggest that everything will somehow be better in the morning. Most importantly, it may help those afflicted by mental illness realize they're not alone." (Quill and Quire)

The Next Day

"It Could Be the Best Night of Your Life..." You've heard about female ejaculation, right? Most men have... Unfortunately, "heard about" is where that knowledge stops. Very few men actually experience female ejaculation. I'm talking about the heat... the wetness... the passion... the total release of all inhibitions that a woman has when she experiences such a powerful orgasm. It's mind-blowing! That's for other guys though...not you. Right? Wrong! What if I told you that you could easily turn any woman into a "squirter" by following a few simple techniques? You'd know exactly what to do and say to make it happen any time, over and over again... "What You're About to Discover May Surprise You..." It surprised me...until I experienced it for myself! What I experienced was so profound, and so powerful, that even I was amazed. In fact, those first experiences were what inspired me to write this book. If I can do this, anybody can. And yes, that means you! So get this book, read it (it's short), and make it happen! Alex Jansen is a Toronto-based writer specializing in frank, sexual topics for an adult audience. In other words, not an author your mother would read...unless she's really kinky.

Kenk: A Graphic Portrait&nbspis a groundbreaking 304-page journalistic comic book detailing the life and times of Igor Kenk, "the world's most prolific bicycle thief" (The New York Times&nbspand&nbspThe Guardian). In Summer 2008, Kenk was arrested and nearly 3,000 bicycles were seized in one of the biggest news stories of the year. Built from more than 30 hours of never-before-seen intimate footage taken over the year leading up to his arrest,&nbspKenk&nbspis a thought-provoking and surprisingly funny portrait of an outsize neighbourhood figure and a city in flux, both wracked by the forces of gentrification and by a burgeoning global environmental and economic crisis that promises to define our generation.
