Description
Monica is a dazzling, spectacular tapestry of interconnected narratives that together tell a life story. This eponymous protagonist is a rag-to-riches character who, after being abandoned by her 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, 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.
