Reviews
This is great and original work. --Stephen King We live in a time when even apologizing has become politicized, but leave it to Jack Bender to find the humanity and beauty in three simple words. Equal parts hilarious, profane, and profound, this book is one I can guarantee that you will NOT be sorry to have read. --Damon Lindelof, screenwriter and cocreator of Lost, The Leftovers, and Watchmen I Am Sorry is the latest gem from my favorite artist, whose illustrations tell entire stories that will amaze you. A necessary book. --Mary-Louise Parker, author of Dear Mr. You and Golden Globe, Emmy, and Tony award-winning actress Jack Bender, in his inimitable style, turns a plaintive refrain into a vibrant and moving apologia. I Am Sorry is both brilliant art and heartbreaking allegory. --Kate Mulgrew, Star Trek: Voyager and author of Born with Teeth Dark, beautiful, intense. The best work yet from one of my favorite visual storytellers. --Brian K. Vaughan, award-winning writer of Y: The Last Man and the Saga comic series From the lead director and executive producer of the acclaimed TV series Lost comes I Am Sorry, a provocative and wholly original collection of paintings on the act of apologizing.
