Back Alleys and Urban Landscapes<\/h3>\n

Publisher’s Synopsis<\/h4>\n

Michael Cho began creating drawings of the back alleys near his Toronto home in 2006.\u00a0 With this book, he has amassed a collection that speaks to the beauty of the urban landscape: sometimes grittily citified, sometimes unexpectedly pastoral, and always bewitching.\u00a0 Cho is a skilled draftsman, and Back Alleys and Urban Landscapes<\/em> shines with lovingly rendered details, from expletive-filled graffiti splayed across backyard fences to the graceful twists of power lines over a bend in the road.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Publisher’s Synopsis<\/h4>\n

Corinna Park used to have big plans.
\nStudying English literature in college, she imagined writing a successful novel and leading the idealized life of an author.\u00a0 But she’s been working at the same advertising agency for the past five years and the only thing that she’s written is– copy.\u00a0 Corrina knows there must be more to life, and she faces the same question as does everyone in her generation: how to find it?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
