Paperback. Condition: New. Inspired by Yeon-sik Hong s attempt to Uncomfortably, Happily is the story of a young couple finding their way. Burdened by unmet comics deadlines and high rent, our narrator and his wife know they must make a change. Convinced the absence of traffic noise will ease his writer s block, our pair welcomes the idea of building a life from scratch. Deciding on a home atop an uninhabited mountain, they excitedly embrace the charms of their new rural existence. From tending to the land and attempting grocery runs through snow, to the complexities of fighting depression in seclusion, the move does not immediately prove to be the golden ticket they d hoped for, and the silence of the mountain poses as much of an obstacle to output as the sirens of the city. Through it all, though, we see simple pleasures seep in and gain prominence over these commercial, and, often, comparatively trivial worries: the smell of the forest, the calming weight of enveloping snow, and the gratification of a stripped down life making art begin to muffle other concerns.Originally published in Korean to great acclaim and winning the Manhwa Today award, Uncomfortably, Happily uniquely explores our narrator s inner world.

Features two stories: the 26-page ''Chapter One: Boobs & Booze Friday'' and a 5-page story ''Jinju'', which features Korean language speech balloons with English translation in footnotes. ''Hellen Jo's latest foray into her twisted world of Korean-American teenage violence and backstabbing is Blister, a bizarre two story collection that is just as fun to look at as it is to read. The first part is the actual Blister story, following the period-tormented Angela as she suffers one awkward day at the pool. The second story, "Jinju". is a devilishly entertaining story of betrayed love and revenge, told in a really cool stylistic approach.'' - William Parschalk, The Johns Hopkins News-Letter Oct 27, 2006. …
