Synopsis
An intimate, beautiful, and heart-wrenching portrait of love, lust, and creativity from one of the world's most innovative graphic novel creators.
A pair of musicians elope to an isolated modernist house in the woods for a romantic weekend together, knowing they'll soon have to go back to their respective lives away from each other. But for the moment, it's as if time itself had been suspended, as if nothing exists, save for the words of love they whisper to each other and the taste of dry sweat on skin. But something lurks right underneath the surface, in the nameless gap between passion and reason. An atmospheric, introspective look at modern love, sex, and music, For As Long As It Rains is the winner of multiple awards, including the prestigious Joe Shuster Award."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
About the Authors
Winner of the 2014 Joe Shuster Award for Best Canadian Cartoonist, Zviane studied music at Université de Montréal before getting sidetracked by her growing interest in comics. A prolific author, she is the creator of For As Long As It Rains, Going Under, Zviane au Japon, Football-Fantasie, and many other award-winning books. Her comics career is in danger of being sidetracked by her growing interest in film. She currently live in Montréal.
Helge Dascher has for 25 years translated texts with a dynamic relationship to images. A background in art history and literature has grounded her translation of over sixty graphic novels, many by artists who have broadened the medium's storytelling range. Her translations included acclaimed titles such as Julie Delporte's This Woman's Work (co-translated with Aleshia Jensen, Drawn and Quarterly, 2019), Sophie Bédard's Lonely Boys (co-translated with Robin Lang, Pow Pow Press, 2020) and Michel Rabagliati's "Paul" books (Drawn and Quarterly, Conundrum). She also translates exhibitions, digital stories, and films, most recently Theodor Ushev's The Physics of Sorrow (with Karen Houle, NFB, 2019). A Montrealer, she works from French and German to English.
