Description
A powerful and poignant graphic novel that tackles the complexities of care-giving with honesty and humanity. David Borden's work explores the beauty and heartbreak of supporting a loved one through disability, delving into the difficult questions that arise when someone won't get better. The book offers a message of acceptance and normalcy, reminding us that not everything must be fixed, and that significant disability and death are a natural part of life. The drawings are quietly stunning, guiding the reader through a disorienting landscape with deceptively simple lines that feel like a glimpse into the artist's private sketchbook. Written by an award-winning artist and writer, this graphic novel is a worthwhile read for anyone who has experienced desperation, loneliness, or sorrow.
