Forlagsbeskrivelse af Monica ‘A Master. An Auteur. Period’ Guillermo Del Toro af Daniel Clowes
This is Monica, one ordinary woman’s extraordinary journey through the history of comics – from the creator of Ghost World***AN OBSERVER BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023***'Pitch-perfect... Could not put it down' OBSERVER'In Monica, Clowes reaches a new artistic peak' VANITY FAIRA dazzling, spectacular tapestry of interconnected narratives that together tell a life story, Monica is the new graphic novel from one of the most iconic storytellers of all time. This eponymous protagonist is a rag-to-riches character who, after being abandoned by her freewheelin' parents in childhood, succeeds in clawing her way to the top - only to lose it all in a stroke of bad luck. She lives out the rest of her days in search of her parents, encountering a cast of eccentric characters who help to piece together her story. This graphic novel extravaganza is an unforgettable ode to the many genres that have defined the comics form - from war, romance and horror to crime and the supernatural. Mysterious, uncategorisable and quintessentially Clowesian, here is a multi-layered masterpiece born of a lifetime of inspiration. Monica marks the creative apex of Daniel Clowes' distinguished career, one of the defining voices of the graphic novel boom over the past quarter-century.
