ANIMAL is happy to learn that our friend Molly Crabapple just got a book deal from Harper Collins! Pub Lunch announces…

Artist, journalist, and DISCORDIA coauthor Molly Crabapple’s DRAWING BLOOD, an illustrated memoir of her life as an “angry punk kid,” model, fire eater, demimonde portraitist, and visual chronicler of protest movements—and an inspiring look at how art can save us.

She has always been trouble, but recently, Crabapple has emerged as a unique type of artist/illustrator/reporter/social commentator hybrid, with her meticulous, allegorical canvases depicting Occupy and Anonymous movements and Tunisian and Greek social and economic crises, to her courtroom sketches of the trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed from Guantanamo Bay.
