Slutsåld

A melancholic memoir of saying goodbye to the familiar. Brimming with empathy and a charming, self-aware wit, Perfect Example is King-Cat zinester John Porcellino s coming-of-age memoir about the momentous and eternal year between the end of high school and the start of college. It s a year of awkward house parties, first kisses, spontaneous, open-ended road trips, and struggles with depression. Framed within the context of empathetic recollection, Perfect Example offers up a new way for us to read our own pasts and be kinder to our younger selves.

John Porcellino creates some of the most thoughtful, intelligent, sympathetic and, yes, beautiful comix in America. Time.com. John Porcellino's comics distill, in just a few lines and words, the feeling of simply being alive. Chris Ware. What I immediately liked about Perfect Example was the spareness of the way it was drawn. After reading it, I was pleased to find out there's much more to it than beautiful artwork. It's sublime and profound and one of my favorite graphic novels. Chester Brown
