Beryl Gore is a lonely orphan living and working at the Palace Theater in London. Night after night, the company performs tales of guts and glory to an audience of drunken louts while young Beryl cranks the artificial wave machine, entranced by the drama. The plays color Beryl's otherwise humdrum life amongst the slaughterhouses and cobbled alleys of the city. In her attic room, she pens her own melodrama, a bloody yarn of pirates and damsels where goodness is always rewarded. When Beryl shyly shows her work to Mister Perry, the Theater Manager, he shoos the child away. As Beryl enters adulthood, the theater ages with her, becoming shabbier and emptier with each passing season. As theater-goers turn to fresh spectacles elsewhere, Beryl realizes her theatrical world is in trouble. If the Palace is to be saved, it will need a bold new playwright.

My First Pandemic is a collection of drawings, thoughts, poems, comics, anger, happiness, life, and death from a difficult period in our history. Over the last two years, between crises and quarantines, Jamison has had time. Time to reflect, to page through old books of poetry, to draw hundreds of rabbit people - for some reason. The loss of a stepfather, followed by the loss of a good friend, gives cause to contemplate one's own mortality. It's strange how the thoughts of 19th-century poets can echo our own. What will we leave behind when our time comes? Sadness, sure, but also wee, silly drawings in honest-to-goodness paper and ink. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

When a mysterious aircraft crashes on the windswept archipelago of Lapyoza, its lone survivor-Pavil-utters only two words: 'Crystal! Empire!' Is Pavil merely the scribe he claims to be, or something more sinister? Despite their suspicions, the people of Lapyoza cannot deny him hospitality. He will stay as their guest, but he must contribute to the community before he can return to the Empire. Thus, Pavil finds himself immersed in the life of Lapyoza, a remote village battered by relentless winds on an isolated archipelago. Far from the bustling imperial cities, Pavil observes the simple yet mysterious rituals of the villagers-changing the face of a massive totem, collecting peculiar artifacts, melting them down, and renewing them in a never-ending cycle. Pavil edges closer to the truth behind the sacred masks and the unseen entity, Hodä, revered by all but known to none. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
