An excellent graphic novel set in old Europe (Paris?) where we find the mysterious Miss Endicott, arriving on the scene, moments after her mother's funeral. By day, she is governess / Nannie for Master Evens and at night, she takes over her mother's duties as conciliator, a mediator between two disputing parties. Her first client / case leads her to the underground where she encounters a gnome crying over his lack of freedom.
Weird art style. Everyone looks MUCH older than they actually are. Why do the kids at the beginning look like they're 45?! Sure, I guess it could be due to the dystopian setting and the stress and all, but even then it's a bit too much.
Story wise, it's barebones and doesn't do the original justice. Much of the impact of the book is lost. Would have been much better if it had been a multi-part series (and with better art).
Please don't let this be your introduction to 1984. Read the damn book.… (meer)
