TIMOTHY GOODMAN
(BOOK READING AND SIGNING)

Designer, illustrator, muralist and author. Grandma calls him an artist. Timothy's art and words have populated walls, buildings, packaging, cars, people, shoes, clothing, book jackets, magazine covers and galleries all over the world.

At OFFF, Timothy will present his new book " I Always Think It's Forever: A Love Story Set in Paris as Told by an Unreliable but Earnest Narrator". Diary entries recall Goodman’s time in Paris, learning about French food, culture, and language, all while falling in love with Aimée who challenged him to not only love someone else but to let himself be loved in return. However, the story shifts to a crushing heartbreak just six months later in Rome.

This one-of-a-kind graphic memoir chronicles it all— the ups, the downs, love found, and love lost— all in the bold illustration style Goodman is best known for. With poetic prose and handwritten script to accompany the artwork (along with a touch of humour and great sadness)n. Goodman’s artful description of his attempts at learning to love himself, in the end, portrays a journey through love and masculinity in a way no book ever has before.
