Some of that may have been the kind of sing-song quality of the words (I loved how the images were integrated with the words at certain points; definitely something that more graphic novels and comics should be doing), and some of it may have been Dave's kind of gentle acceptance at what was happening to and around him. The art was well detailed, and the greyscale palette well-served to the themes of the book and the atmosphere of Here. The idea that everything is orderly and tidy, only to be interrupted by some intrusion of disorder is not a new one, but having that intrusion of disorder be attached, unwittingly and unwillingly, to a helpless/hapless person is unique. Dave doesn't know what happening, he doesn't like it, but he doesn't know how to stop it. The reactions of everyone around him - general dissolving of order, the increasingly desperate but still rational attempts to control the beard, the reaction against Dave - progressed believably and realistically, and the kind of sweet sorrow of inevitability that suffused through the graphic novel was prevalent enough that you both felt sorry for Dave and understood the reactions of everyone else. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"On the island of Here, livin's easy. Conduct is orderly. Lawns are neat. Citizens are clean shaven--and Dave is the most fastidious of them all. Dave is bald, but for a single hair. He loves drawing, his desk job, and the Bangles. But on one fateful day, his life is upended...by an unstoppable (yet pretty impressive) beard."--Back cover.
