Mark Jowett

illustrated by Matthias Lechner

These nine provocative, evocative tales by Mark Jowett, cofounder of Nettwerk Productions, take place in the subways of three major cities: Paris, London and New York. Accompanied by a CD and amazing art by acclaimed animator Matthias Lechner, it?s the perfect book to read on subway and bus rides, or just to take a trip into the lives of some unique and fascinating characters.

Mark Jowett is a founding partner in the Nettwerk Music Group, Canada?s most successful independent music company. He has creatively worked with many of the artists that have been associated with Nettwerk such as Sarah Mclachlan, Avril Lavigne, Great Lake Swimmers, Delerium and many others. Beyond Nettwerk, Mark also plays guitar in the acclaimed Vancouver indie band Cinderpop, and is an avid cellist, and continues to write stories and scripts, produce and mix records, direct videos and in general make a creative nuisance of himself.

Matthias Lechner has worked as an art director and production designer on a large number of European and American animated feature films for over twenty years. His passion lies in exploring a cross between drawing and cinematography. He now lives with his wife, daughter, cat and dog in Vancouver, BC.
