Joe Sacco at Edinburgh International Book Festival

Previous books such as Footnotes In Gaza established Joe Sacco’s international reputation as the world’s leading comics journalist. His latest graphic novel Journalism is a compelling set of cartoon-essays, in which he demonstrates the power of comic journalism to grasp at the truth. In conversation with event chair Adrian Searle, Sacco reveals what drives his work and why objective journalism is not always honest Journalism. Recorded live at the 2013 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
