Forlagsbeskrivelse af In: The Graphic Novel af Will McPhail
The debut graphic novel by award-winning New Yorker cartoonist Will McPhail, In is intimate and accessible, a smart commentary on modern life and a joyful celebration of being human. WINNER OF THE BETTY TRASK PRIZE''BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL OF 2021'' Guardian and Irish Times''Starts as a charming romantic comedy and turns into something tender and affecting about our need for connection. I loved this one. '' David Nicholls''Beautiful, bittersweet portrait of modern life . . . his tragicomedy will also make the heart swell.'' Guardian''Brilliant.'' Candice Carty-Williams''This is a miraculous book.'' Joe DunthorneNick, a young illustrator, can''t connect with people. Whether it''s the barista down the street, his own family or Wren, an oncologist whose life becomes painfully tangled with his, Nick can''t shake the feeling that there is some hidden realm of human interaction beyond his reach. He staggers through meaningless conversations and haunts lookalike, vacuous coffee shops in the hope that he will find it there. But it isn''t until Nick learns to stop performing and speak about the things that really matter that the complex and colourful worlds of the people he meets are finally revealed to him.Illustrated in both colour and black-and-white in McPhail''s instantly recognisable style, In is poignant, fresh and hilarious. McPhail transforms the graphic novel with a heart-wrenching compassion uncannily appropriate for our isolated times.
