Award-winning cartoonist and graphic novelist Roz Chast has a knack for putting a smile on people's faces in record time. Her cartoons in The New Yorker, which have been delighting readers of the magazine for 45 years, are as distinctive as they are memorable. Chast's new book, the wonderful "I Must Be Dreaming", is as dreamy as the title suggests. In this book, Roz Chast illustrates her own dream world, a place that is sometimes creepy but always hilarious, accompanied by an illustrated tour through “Dream-Theory Land” guided by insights from poets, philosophers, and psychoanalysts alike. In addition to the blurb from Alison Bechdel, the book also features lesbian representation in the form of Nan Goldin and Fran Lebowitz. She is also a mother of a trans kid, as she discussed with anchor Gregg Shapiro in a recent interview for eBar! This interview could not have taken place at a better time than now as Roz is also expected to be at the upcoming 40th Miami Book Fair from November 12 – 19. It is an annual street fair and literary festival that attracts over 300 national and international authors every year and features pavilions for comics, children, and young adults from the LGBTQ+ community and others.
