Sticks and Stones

by Peter Kuper - £9.99  Random House USA (2005)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781400052578 | ISBN 10: 1400052572

In a barren landscape, an empire is about to rise and an epic struggle is about to unfold. Sticks and Stones illuminates this earth-shaking tale without a single word. It is as elemental as hieroglyphics, a timeless story for all ages.
 
In Sticks and Stones, Peter Kuper has created a picture story of epic proportions. It is an intricate tale of birth and death, war and peace, artfully told without a single word. Sticks and Stones chronicles the rise of an empire and the consequences of hubris. This is a timeless allegory for our present-day world.

"Given that Peter Kuper's work is usually wordless and silent, it is all the more extraordinary that he should be one of the strongest and truest radical voices to emerge from a contemporary America.
In 'Sticks and Stones', Kuper crafts a Bush-era parable so beautiful, simple, and ludid that it could be understood and enjoyed by anyone, regardless of nationality. This is a powerful, angry, and compassionate document, and it its perfectly measured silence there resides a profound human eloquence. Hugely recommended."
(Alan Moore, author of Watchmen and From Hell)
