Three Myriad graphic novelists will be addressing a one-day symposium on Storying the Self at the University of Brighton: Hannah Eaton, author of Naming Monsters and the forthcoming Blackwood; Paula Knight, whose graphic memoir The Facts of Life is published by Myriad on 16 March 2017, and Nye Wright, author of Things To Do in a Retirement Home Trailer Park, which Myriad published in 2012. The panel will discuss the self and its representation in the graphic novel form.
The one-day event seeks to explore how the self is represented, reimagined and reconfigured in a range of practices across the arts, humanities and social sciences. Organised by C21: Research in 20th Century Writings, the group will bring together academics, writers and artists as researchers of their own and/or others’ practices in ideas related to narratives of the self.
