Renee Macalino Rutledge: Powell's Q&A: Renee Macalino Rutledge, author of 'One Hundred Percent Me' (0 comment)
Could you describe your latest book, One Hundred Percent Me?
A little girl is used to hearing questions about her looks all the time. "Where are you from?" "What are you?" These questions are a constant reminder from others that she is different. As she embraces her identity and culture, she teaches others that she belongs, that the differences they notice are part of what make her unique, special, and herself....

Publisher Comments

Brief Lives is the seventh volume in the story of The Sandman.

Delirium, youngest of the extended family known as the Endless, prevails upon her brother Dream (the Sandman) to help find their missing sibling, Destruction. Their odyssey through the world of the waking and the final confrontation with Destruction — plus the resolution of Dream's painful relationship with his son, Orpheus — will change the Endless forever.

Review

"Brief Lives is as exciting and understatedly emotional as all the other Sandman stories — fantasy fables of modern life and the Endless....Gaiman exists on a plane all his own. His depth, range, and command of narrative cannot be bettered." Preview

Review

"[D]riven by sharply drawn characters...[Gaiman's] knack for capturing the patterns of intimacy, even in an otherworldly setting, can be affecting. Thompson and Locke contribute subtle and vividly colored drawings, rendered in an awkward but agile line." Publishers Weekly

Synopsis

The Sandman is the most acclaimed and award-winning comics series of the 1990s for good reason. A smart and deeply brooding epic, elegantly penned by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by a rotating cast of comics' most sought-after artists, it is a rich blend of modern myth and dark fantasy in which contemporary fiction, historical drama, and legend are seamlessly interwoven. The saga of The Sandman encompasses a series of tales unique in graphic literature, and is a story you will never forget.

Synopsis

The Lord of Dreams is led by his sister, Delirium, on a desperate search for their brother, Destruction.

The art, the ideas, the emotion...this is my favorite Sandman, though I admit to loving the others as well. Delirium is a delight to observe, and her ramblings never grow old to me. I wish I had the money to buy the whole collection, but I'd choose this one over any of the others if I had to.
