Notes From Your Bookseller

David Byrne worked with artist Maira Kalman to translate his live Broadway show, American Utopia, into the printed matter. And, if there are any two people who can make our eyes jump as if we were at a concert, or Broadway musical, it’s Byrne and Kalman. Between the Spike Lee film version of the stage show AND this book, we will get to enjoy these artists’ world view. There is utter joy in seeing Kalman’s illustrations. She truly captures the David Byrne vibe. Together, they create a world where we take a step forward with a shimmy and go through life with a handshake.

From former Talking Heads frontman and multimedia visionary David Byrne and revered bestselling author, illustrator, and artist Maira Kalman--an inspiring celebration in words and art of the connections between us all.
