    A beautiful collection of paintings, drawings and reflections on creatures, our constant companions, from the masterful narrative artist Shaun Tan.A creature does not necessarily represent one thing or another; it just is. A mysterious being in a mysterious world, much like you and me, trying to fit in, trying to be unique, or just trying to make sense of things as best we can, to exist.World-renowned artist Shaun Tan turns his hand to the theme of creatures. The first thing Shaun ever drew as a child was a creature, and they are still at the heart of his work. This volume collects together unseen and stand-alone drawings and paintings, along with rich and thoughtful commentary from Shaun on his inspirations. Delving deep into the timeless allure of non-human creatures, and what they might tell us about our 'normal' human selves, this book is perfect for artists, writers and dreamers alike.

    A hauntingly beautiful picture book from the acclaimed Shaun Tan, winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal 2020, Academy Award and Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award, The rabbits came many grandparents ago. They built houses, made roads, had children. They cut down trees.A whole continent of rabbits... The Rabbits is a thought-provoking allegorical fable about colonisation and the effect of man on the environment. Told from the perspective of the colonised, an unseen narrator describes the coming of the 'rabbits'. An encounter that is at first friendly and curious, but later darkens... Sparse, strange and stunningly beautiful, The Rabbits is a truly unique picture book.

    Cikaden, som er hovedpersonen i australske Shaun Tans nye billedbog, arbejder på et kontor i højhuset, hvor han fra sin lille kontorbås slider sig igennem dagene; mobbet, uelsket og uværdsat af sine kolleger og chef. Han sover endda på kontoret, for han har ikke råd til en lejlighed. Efter 17 år bliver han, på trods af sin ihærdige indsats for firmaet, opsagt. Hvor skal cikaden nu gå hen? Da han står på højhusets tag og vil tage afsked med det hele sker der noget helt utroligt Dyster billedbog med noget på hjerte. Cikadens ensomme og trøstesløse tilværelse beskrives i korte, brudte sætninger og understreges af Tans betongrå, minimalistiske illustrationer. Den tilsyneladende enkle historie har flere lag, der åbner op for fortolkning og indbyder til dialog Bogen er for alle, der nogensinde har følt sig ringeagtet eller overset, større børn fra 6 år og op såvel som voksne. Velegnet til emnearbejder om billedkunst og følelser. (Uddrag af lektørudtalelse).

    Shaun Tan folder sin helt unikke fantasi ud i en refleksion over mennesket og dyrenes natur og vor urbane sameksistens: En mørk og surreel udforskning af såvel den evige kærlighed, vi føler, som den destruktion, vi påfører dyrene - og af hvordan vores liv er flettet sammen på godt og ondt. I CITYFORTÆLLINGER er homo sapiens ikke først, men sidst. VI er gennemlyst af dyrenes uforfalskede blik. Som civilisation. I bestyrelseslokalerne såvel som i retssalene. CITYFORTÆLLINGER er i den udenlandske presse allerede udråbt som et mesterværk, som rummer alle aspekter af Shaun Tan’s vid og intensitet både i teksterne og de udsøgte illustrationer.
