ON TYRANNY GRAPHIC EDITION - TIMOTHY SNYDER GEB...

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A graphic edition of historian Timothy Snyder’s lessons for
surviving and resisting America’s arc toward authoritarianism  featuring the visual
storytelling talents of renowned illustrator Nora Krug Nora Krug has visualized and rendered
some of the most valuable lessons of the twentieth century  which will serve all citizens as we
shape the future.”—Shepard Fairey  artist and activist Timothy Snyder’s New York Times
bestseller On Tyranny uses the darkest moments in twentieth-century history  from Nazism to
Communism  to teach twenty lessons on resisting modern-day authoritarianism. Among the twenty
include a warning to be aware of how symbols used today could affect tomorrow (4: Take
responsibility for the face of the world”)  an urgent reminder to research everything for
yourself and to the fullest extent (11: Investigate”)  a point to use personalized and
individualized speech rather than clichéd phrases for the sake of mass appeal (9: Be kind to
our language”)  and more. In this graphic edition  Nora Krug draws from her highly inventive
art style in Belonging—at once a graphic memoir  collage-style scrapbook  historical narrative
and trove of memories—to breathe new life  color  and power into Snyder’s riveting historical
references  turning a quick-read pocket guide of lessons into a visually striking rumination.
In a time of great uncertainty and instability  this edition of On Tyranny emphasizes the
importance of being active  conscious  and deliberate participants in resistance.
