Another good graphic novel is Tetsu Kariya's The joy of rice, which is considered as a food and travel graphic novel that is by no means close to the genres covered in class so far. <br /><br />Graphic novels is a medium, and I like your point about that it is not a genre.

It's interesting that you bring up the <i>Funhouse</i> purchasing experience, because I found the Dalai Lama GN under biography, while the Anne Frank GN was in Graphic Novels at Barnes and Noble. When I asked the person who was helping me why these were shelved in different places, he said he had no idea why and could't explain it to me. <br /><br />I think i'm going to put the person who developed the cataloging system at BN on my list of people to meet before i die so I can ask them all these questions.
