Multi-award-winning Abingdon based artist Charles Vess speaks about his four-year collaboration with Ursula K. LeGuin to bring her vision of the “Earthsea” world to the page for the first time on Tuesday, Aug. 16 from 6-8 p.m.
In 2014, Vess was chosen by Saga Press to collaborate with LeGuin to illustrate a compilation of all five of her Earthsea novels “The Books of Earthsea: The Complete Illustrated Edition.” Published in 2018, the collection won the 2019 Locus Award for Best Art Book and the 2019 Hugo Award for Best Art Book. The Community Reads selection, “A Wizard of Earthsea” is the first book in the series.
