Picasso's Ghost tells the amazing true story of author, actress and model Carole Mallory, who fell in love with Picasso's son Claude as he whirled her around a Manhattan dance floor, her heart lost in the rhythm of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive." This up-and-down relationship coincided with her career as a supermodel gracing the covers of Cosmopolitan, New York Magazine, and her work in such iconic films as The Stepford Wives and Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Her adventures in Hollywood, New York and Paris with such stellar lovers as Peter Sellers, Robert de Niro, Rod Stewart, Richard Gere and Norman Mailer make for an exciting and erotic read that will make the reader cheer for Mallory's eventual happy ending. "The blow Carole suffered, the lobotomization of her once bright and charming father, could not have been more severe. It takes more than courage to survive a horror on that scale. I suggest that she was gifted as well, as an actress and as a keen observer, too, as a potential journalist and social commentator," Kurt Vonnegut

Contributions by David M. Ball, Scott Bukatman, Hillary Chute, Jean Lee Cole, Louise Kane, Matthew Levay, Andrei Molotiu, Jonathan Najarian, Katherine Roeder, Noa Saunders, Clémence Sfadj, Nick Sturm, Glenn Willmott, and Daniel Worden Since the early 1990s, cartoonist Art Spiegelman has made the case that comics are the natural inheritor of the aesthetic tradition associated with the modernist movement of the early twentieth century. In recent years, scholars have begun to place greater import on the shared historical circumstances of early comics and literary and artistic modernism. Comics and Modernism: History, Form, and Culture is an interdisciplinary consideration of myriad social, cultural, and aesthetic connections. Filling a gap in current scholarship, an impressively diverse group of scholars approaches the topic from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and methodologies. Drawing on work in literary studies, art history, film studies, philosophy, and material culture studies, contributors attend to the dynamic relationship between avant-garde art, literature, and comics. Essays by both established and emerging voices examine topics as divergent as early twentieth-century film, museum exhibitions, newspaper journalism, magazine illustration, and transnational literary circulation. In presenting varied critical approaches, this book highlights important interpretive questions for the field. Contributors sometimes arrive at thoughtful consensus and at other times settle on productive disagreements. Ultimately, this collection aims to extend traditional lines of inquiry in both comics studies and modernist studies and to reveal overlaps between ostensibly disparate artistic practices and movements.
