Reviews
"Marvin, a graphic novel adapted and illustrated by Ian David Marsden based on The Way I Was by Marvin Hamlisch, tells the story of Hamlisch, a famous film composer, through a Jewish lens. A large portion of the graphic novel follows Marvin's parents in flashbacks as they escape Nazi Germany to come to America, where Marvin himself is born. Exploring his parents' story allows for a greater understanding of his Jewish heritage and what his parents had to do to survive Nazi Germany. The book shines when it showcases Marvin's successes. Once he starts to make it as a composer, he narrates the stories behind some of his biggest triumphs, such as his breakout score for "The Swimmer," and his Golden Globe Winning song for "Kotch." The graphic novel illustrates his writing process, often utilizing some of the skills he learned from his education at Julliard, detailed at the beginning of the book. Marsden includes celebrity cameos and behind the scenes looks at Hollywood which add sparkle and recognition to the story. Marsden's art style invites in all graphic novel readers. The cartoonish yet vivid faces of the characters are warm and friendly, and make Marvin's story feel familiar and accessible. Marvin is a fun read for any film fan who wants to learn about musical scores, ironically one of the medium's most unsung aspects.", Marvin, a graphic novel adapted and illustrated by Ian David Marsden based on The Way I Was by Marvin Hamlisch, tells the story of Hamlisch, a famous film composer, through a Jewish lens.

The cartoonish yet vivid faces of the characters are warm and friendly, and make Marvin's story feel familiar and accessible. Marvin is a fun read for any film fan who wants to learn about musical scores, ironically one of the medium's most unsung aspects., It isn't only that Marvin's story offers a roller coaster of life events. It also speaks of a different time when social interaction is based on being a stand-up person, where integrity speaks for itself. It is hard to imagine it was the norm not so long ago, especially when this book and its story are pitted against what passes for the norm now. But adapted from the self-authored The Way I Was, Ian David Marsden captures the tone and look of Marvin Hamlisch, in both his penmanship and illustrations. No doubt that, there was real love for Marsden's subject matter. And without upholding Hamlisch's integrity in this adaptation, there is also no doubt this book would hold its weight., "What is important is that the chuck-full-of-amazing facts content is beautifully presented here by Marsden. Imagine Hamlisch at age 6 being accepted at Julliard. Really. Imagine his father was an accordion player and that his Jewish parents left Vienna to avoid the Nazis. The telling of it is edge-of-your-seat exciting. It almost seems unimaginable that this brilliant composer and conductor really enjoyed playing stickball in the streets of New York as a kid." Republican American March 2020, God gave Marvin Hamlisch a life that has made for some great storytelling and this graphic novel is proof. It's a great read, historically fascinating and 100% Marvin in its wit and wisdom. I never wanted it to end., "God gave Marvin Hamlisch a life that has made for some great storytelling and this graphic novel is proof. It's a great read, historically fascinating and 100% Marvin in its wit and wisdom. I never wanted it to end." Lucie Arnaz, Emmy award-winning producer and actress

- 0***1 (1566)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThis book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
