Publisher Description:
The summer before college is a time of experimentation and growth. John tackles the pain and uncertainty that the end of childhood brings in a surprisingly minimalist, open-hearted, and empathetic style. Rejoicing in simple things while hiding from duplicity and complexity, John's portrayal of teenage alienation avoids sensationalism and irony. Roadtrips, drunken concerts, and late-night make-out sessions all swirl together in this beautiful, sad story.Considered by many to be the leader of the anti-irony movement in comics, John has been self-publishing his own photo-copied comics for several years. This is his first North American collection.
