The amazingly prolific, self-publishing comics maker (and former Comics Workbook Magazine editor), Andrew White presents comics biographes of three of the most important figures of modernism – Virginia Woolf, Gertrde Stein and Georgia O'Keefe. In it's close to 300 pages – with roughly 100 pages devoted to each of its subjects – Together & Apart works to synthesize a form of comics moderism out of its subjects' respective approaches to literature and art. Much food for thought – and for the eyes.

“Together & Apart at first glance appears light and airy, but a hundred pages in, you realize how dense this ghostly book actually is — how much ‘there is there!’ White draws, in his best drawings to date, sensations in and around the text of three great artist-writers.” — Dash Shaw
“White’s amazing work does exactly what Woolf’s, Stein’s and O’Keeffe’s work does - create real, alive experiences of reading and seeing. This is not illustration or narration, it is the world itself, drawn on pages. He joins his three subjects in making comics ‘stories’ that defy simple explanations and reward close looking.” — Warren Craghead
