In his first English publication, the award-winning Norwegian cartoonist Jason offers this superbly evocative graphic novella, which starts off as a melancholy childhood memoir and then, with a shocking twist midway through, becomes the summary of lives lived, wasted and lost. Like Art Spiegelman did with 'Maus', Jason utilizes anthropomoprhic stylizations to reach deeper, more general truths, and to create elegantly minimalist panels whose emotional depth-charge comes as an even greater shock. An engaging debut. Illustrated in b/w throughout.
