“English 494: Modern American Fiction - A graphic novel. Looks like a comic-book but takes the same critical skills used with Faulkner or Vonnegut to read and understand it. An overall good story, but one that is slightly confusing and leaves some holes due to this. ”

Una de las novelas gráficas más oscuras y turbadoras que he leído. La habitual luminosidad y aparente ligereza de los cómics de clowes se convierte aquí en una atmósfera malsana, densa y pegajosa donde los personajes están perturbados y buscan salir del agujero de la perversión, la maldad y la mentira. Aún así, la novela se disfruta en cada viñeta. Un viaje hacia lo más oscuro de la mente humana.”
