"A vision-impaired, Victorian spinster in need of primitive cataract surgery has little time for herself between needing to take care of her demanding invalid sister-in-law, and investigating her brother's mysterious nighttime activities. To escape it all, she engages in a sexual relationship with a haunted mirror in her bedroom. Julia Gfrörer's third graphic novel is another revitalizing and contemporary spin on the grand tradition of gothic storytelling, exploring ideas of abandonment and sexuality with an expert mix of mystery, horror, and nostalgia. As with her two previous and acclaimed graphic novels, Laid Waste and Black Is the Color, Gfrörer's delicate and dark linework perfectly complements the period era of the book's setting, bringing the lyricism and romanticism of her stories to the fore." -- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Grieving the death of her fiancé, Eleanor Lutz finds herself living with her brother, caring for his invalid wife, losing her vision to cataracts, and doing the 19th-century version of a webcam sex show with the supernatural being inhabiting her mirror. Or maybe she's just having a mental health crisis?
There some shock value from the sex scenes and an extended scene that goes all in on the ol' injury-to-the-eye motif, but I didn't get much else from this dark and depressing dive into the abyss of human relations.
