This is the epitome of Suburban depression, isolation, prejudices, and hardships. This graphic novel present an inside cynical-realist look at what happens between the boundaries of these tight knitted houses – showing childhood, teenage hood, and adolescence in this enclosed world where bad things do still happen such as rape, underage pregnancy, car accidents, substance abuse, etc. Of course it presents only one side of the story – I personally despise the suburb but it’s not all chaos, doom and gloom as Drnaso chose to depict.

“Those we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch.” 

“In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
