I Ate the Whole World to Find You
An entire sea of water can''t sink a ship…unless it gets insideI Ate the Whole World to Find You maps the topography of trauma, treasures, and loss imposed onto the body of Jenny, a twenty-something-going-on-thirty-something partial hot mess who’s routing her way more firmly into adulthood. As she navigates friendship, family, and romantic relationships, will her inability to communicate destroy her, or ultimately be her rebirth?A coworker-turned-prospective-lover confesses a hard-to-swallow fetish. A train ride fantastically goes off the rails as old habits get dragged across the tracks. Cousins revisit summer holiday bliss—or was it really horror? Exes fumble an attempt to reconnect over a dip in the pool on a squelching summer day. And an expectant mother slips into an unusual place as she embarks on a communion with her baby more pure than language can accommodate.Set against an exquisitely lush Australian backdrop, Rachel Ang’s pencils are fluid yet scratchy, precise and evocative, bringing to life the inner and external world of Jenny with stunning realism and gushing imagination. Sprinkled with speculative fiction and fantasy, Ang’s radiant debut collection introduces a dynamic voice to comics, and establishes Ang as one of the most exciting short-story writers working in comics today.

Než se Glorie naděje, je vtažená do honby za posláním své nové přítelkyně, a zatímco se Estée impulzivně vrhá do světa obchodu, Glorie začíná objevovat své vlastní talenty.

Pomo aneb Večírek na Bludném Holanďanu
Večírek na Bludném Holanďanu, druhý díl Rakouské trilogie Fritze von Herzmanovského-Orlanda, je ještě mnohem ztřeštěnější, skurilnější a spletitější než díl první: pestrobarevná společnost poskládaná ze všech stavů a evropských národů a pronárodů se poflakuje po magicky krásném středozemním Jabloňovém ostrově, pindá, klevetí, slaví a vymýšlí fantastické kraviny. Bizarně překreslený obraz rakouského univerza před vypuknutím 1. světové války je ostrou satirou na různé – většinou parazitní – společenské typy a ve svém apokalyptickém závěru pak působí jako předpověď nádcházejících katastrof 20. století.

The death of her grandmother has left her family shrine devoid of the necessary divinity, and her hopelessly shut-in Himiko brother doesn’t look promising. But if Nagi isn’t careful, her search for a god might end with her finding more than she bargained for…
