Jimmy Corrigan, The Smartest Kid on Earth

The first graphic novel to win a major British literary award – the Guardian First Book Award in 2001 – this book by Chris Ware is beautiful (both to look at and read) and poignant.

Chris Ware is probably best known for his New Yorker magazine cover art and his Acme Novelty Library series.
