Description

Cathy Malkasian's Temperance is a thought-provoking graphic novel that explores the power of ideas and conflict in shaping a society. Set in a world where a brutal injury has erased one man's memories, his wife creates a culture built around him as a hero, with a complex web of lies, stories, and beliefs. In this densely textured work, Malkasian masterfully conveys the intricate social context, bringing to life vividly realized characters within a rich, tonal pencil line. The result is a galvanizing portrayal of empathy and violence that invites readers to consider the consequences of our actions. Through her accomplished storytelling, Malkasian creates a world that is both fascinating and unsettling, one that challenges us to think critically about the role of conflict and heroism in our lives.
