Work, health, family -- Mel feels like her life is just circling endlessly as she begins to renew her relationship to her brother in this vibrant graphic novel.
Mel isn’t going anywhere – except to work every day. But when she offers the spare room in her apartment to her struggling brother, everything she loves and hates about wanting to live up to the expectations of her family becomes part of her every day again.
It turns out that even as adults, living with your sibling brings back the dynamics of tween rivalries. As Mel tries to rebalance things with her brother, she navigates how to offer help to someone who doesn’t want to need it.
Renowned illustrator Ellice Weaver brings her crisp artwork to the graphic novel form in this powerful story of contemporary life.
Something City
Something City is an exploration of modern day living through representations of the lives of different groups of people in an imagined place. Segregated communities of young people, elders, fanatics, techies and the religious live side by side, interweaving and cohabiting in a city they build around themselves.
Through snapshots of each community, Ellice Weaver captures both the qualities that make different communities unique, but also what binds them together to make up the modern, multicultural cities that we exist in today. Beautifully composed pages introduce us to each group before we're taken on a short journey inside each of their worlds. Stunning artwork and wry, odd and moving stories come together to produce a book that is unique, vibrant and universal.
