The handbook-sized package suggests an excellent choice to take on a journey of one’s own. The compact shape is easy to pack and the thickness promises many stories within.
In the days after September 11th, with the ruins of his job, relationship, and city crumbling around him, cartoonist and roustabout K. Thor Jensen packed a backpack, bought a bus pass and took to the open road. His 60-day, 10,000-mile journey is chronicled in this ragtag romance. Red Eye, Black Eye is a fractured portrait of 21st century American life. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

This graphic novel format memoir captures the ups and downs of his trip. As each trip was a matter of finding a couch he could crash on in a city served by the bus line, each meeting was a balance of who will be the weirdo: K. Thor or his host? The longer he traveled, the more often it was that he was the weirdo.
Most of the book is transcriptions of stories Jenson heard on his trip. Some are interesting. Some aren't. Some are disturbing. It's not a book for everyone. ( )
