Day 1. Gotta get up. Gotta keep moving. This map - it says I have to cross over here. Wait, what's that...? And so begins a graphic novel story unlike any other: 49 Days. In Buddhist tradition, a person must travel for forty-nine days after they die, before they can fully cross over. Here in this book, readers travel with one Korean American girl, Kit, on her journey, while also spending time with her family and friends left behind. Agnes Lee has captivated readers across the world for years with her illustrations for the New York Times Metropolitan Diary. Her debut graphic novel is an unforgettable story of death, grief, love, and how we keep moving forward. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

this was fairly abstract, and I had to re-read the book jacket description before I could figure out what Kit's journey was all about. But once there I liked how the minimalist palette worked (memories and scenes from the living world were in an orangey tone; Kit's after-death journey was in blues) and the seemingly simple way that the author portrayed both Kit's grief as well as a glimpse of her family's grief. It's a beautiful story that unfolds here (with lots of kimchi) and a love-filled life and dreams cut short. Very well done and recommended. ( )
