Mi'raj — J. Carrier. Published by TIS Books.
I’ve known of this book, which relates to Israel and Palestine, being in development for years, and sadly, it’s finally arriving in this dark time; a time that feels darker than ever before. Words easily fail to meet a moment like this, but J. has said this work is an attempt to share his sadness over “the chasm between what could be and what is.” Here’s where pictures step in. It's a great book, and I’m thankful for it and J. shining light on “what could be.”
Christian Patterson lives in New York and is the author of three books, including Sound Affects, Bottom of the Lake, and Redheaded Peckerwood. He’s currently completing his largest body of work to date, Gong Co., which he hopes to publish in 2023.
