Animal Stories door Peter Hoey
Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss.
originally attempted to read as an ebook via netgalley May 2022 but the file was unreadable; ebook copy checked out from library Sept 2022.
graphic fiction - Good luck physically manifests as delicate stones in river water; its discovery changes the path of a gold rush prospector and, later, a hat salesman in San Francisco.
I'll admit I saw the Golden Gate bridge on the cover illustration and hoped there would be some diversity in this story, but it turned out to be more of a noir setting (rendered gritless in its graphic format, but not without the requisite unsavory characters) rather than a portrait of the modern city. The imaginative plot moves quickly, flipping back and forth between characters, the connection between them becoming clearer as the book progresses. The illustrations are relatively stiff compared to other graphic formats--I am reminded of LEGO minifigurines--but it doesn't detract from the story and the artwork is still fine. The book is created by sibling duo, Peter and Maria Hoey.… (meer)

A surreal take on human/animal relations and original sin that unfolds in six interconnected short stories. The first few tales intrigued, but the pacing and stiff, sterile art began to irritate and the closing tales became increasingly stupid and annoying until reaching a finale that pays off all that has come before in the silliest manner possible. Nerts to this.
