Montreal-based indy publisher Drawn & Quarterly has announced a quartet of new titles that they will publish in Fall 2021.

Leonard Cohen: On a Wire, by Philippe Girard, is a biography of the famous poet and musician, who revisits his life in a series of flashbacks on the day he dies: Casting off a steady job in the family business to become a poet, finding unexpected popularity after recording his first album, the rise of his song "Halleleujah" to iconic status, and the renewal of his career after he was forced to go back on tour later in life, after his manager embezzled his money and left him broke.

Tunnels, by Rutu Modan, who won an Eisner Award for The Property, follows a woman returning to an archaeological dig begun years before in search of the Ark of the Covenant.  Nili, the lead character, is trying not only to find the Ark but also to rehabilitate her father’s reputation as an archaeologist, but she’s digging in a part of the world that is claimed by both Israel and Palestine, and her expedition is not the only one.

Library is a collection of paintings by Canadian artists Michael Dumontier and Neil Farber. Each painting is a simple image of a book with a provocative title such as "I Lost the Human Race;" the "books" are part of a series the two artists have been working on since 2009, and Library will be the third book of their work to be published by D+Q.

The Waiting by Keum Suk Gendry-Kim is the follow-up to her Harvey Award-winning Grass.  While it’s fiction, The Waiting is based the experiences of Gendry-Kim’s mother during the Korean War and tells of how family members were separated from one another when the country was divided, often staying apart for decades.
