33) Niffenegger, Aurdey. THE NIGHT BOOKMOBILE. Abrams ComicArts: 2010.

Jorge Luis Borges: “I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library."

“The Night Bookmobile is a love letter, both elegiac and heartbreaking, to the things we have read, and to the readers that we are. It says that what we read makes us who we are. It’s a graphic short story, beautifully drawn and perfectly told, a cautionary fantasia for anyone who has ever loved books, and I hope the story of the library, of Alexandra, finds its place on the night bookmobiles of all of who’d care. It’s a treasure.”
Neil Gaiman
