Clyde Fans

"Seth truly believes in his wares—the little meaning of regular lives. Though it may take some time before the second Clyde Fans collection comes out, I am sold."—The New York Times Book Review

"Clyde Fans is a nuanced fictional glimpse exploring everyday people in a forgotten time."—The Globe and Mail

"Seth's drawings are lush, delicate examples of cartoon realism rendered in black ink and luminous blue tones. His version of the world is completely his own—from figure to object to landscape but, in its details, utterly familiar to a reader. These drawings, combined with Seth's deliberate pacing, give the effect of having the narrator whisper in your ear, making Clyde Fans a wonderfully captivating experience and a masterful use of the medium."—Washington Post Book World

"Seth's thick, gentle brushstrokes convey sympathy for his slump-shouldered, marginalized characters, and he captures emotions with a few simple lines. A dedicated mood-setter, Seth invites his readers to linger over wordless panels of falling leaves, old brick buildings and plumes of industrial smoke billowing against a starry sky."—Vancouver Sun

"A masterpiece-in-the-making."—The Onion

"Clyde Fans . . . is a good, old-fashioned story freshened by expressive artwork . . . 'Seth' is the remarkably gifted Gregory Gallant, who uses words sparingly and draws with affection and efficiency."—Chicago Sun-Times

"Single-named Canadian artist Seth is a marvelous draftsman."—New York Newsday
