Plain Janes II
:: Posted by Bryan @ 2/01/2008 12:00:00 AM 
Janes in Love is the title of the sequel to The Plain Janes, the graphic novel written by Canadian bestseller Cecil Castellucci and illustrated by U.S. cartoonist Jim Rugg. The new book is due out late-2008. In the mean-time, you might be able to hear Castellucci on CBC's Q podcast (she's on at the end, after John Sayles!). You can also see a Castellucci sketch from the Beguiling signing earlier this week, courtesy of Jason Truong. In other news, The Plain Janes made the 2008 Amelia Bloomer list, "Recommended Feminist Books for Young Readers". Lastly, Nathalie Atkinson namechecks Castellucci in her Post article on post-feminism, "Who needs Ms. magazine when we've got manga comics?"Labels: events, graphic novels, pod casts
