Oh god, I read it yesterday and almost cried. It’s so perfect. If I ever make something like this I can die happily.

In reply to Nymeth. It's so amazing. If I owned a copy I would totally lend it to you, but sadly, I am also on a book buying ban. Why am I not independently wealthy?

This sounds SO good! I kind of want it RIGHT NOW. Stupid book buying ban.

In reply to Sharry. See, I know why you haven't read one in a while. It's because you've been saving yourself for Ordinary Victories. Completely understandable. I affirm your discernment. Carry on. :P

Oh geez, I haven't read a comic or graphic novel for so long. The last one I read was The Watchmen and only because I was sort of bullied into it. The last one I read that I enjoyed was in a french snoopy comic book. That was a LONG time ago =P

In reply to Care.

I’m a little surprised my library had this – their collection of American graphic novels isn’t very good, let alone graphic novels by furrners. If you can get hold of it, read it, read it!

oh yea, those stalwart-type translators are the best. Glad you enjoyed this so much! I need to try another graphic novel and really should get myself into the library soon.
