The Ephemerata: Shaping the Exquisite Nature of Grief

"Is there a right way to experience, or express, grief? Autobiographical cartoonist Carol Tyler’s latest heavyweight, crammed with inky, wild visuals and loopy prose, does not seek simple answers. Hurting from the deaths of her mother, sister and father, Tyler does not try to tell readers how they might feel in similar circumstances. Instead, she implores others to pay careful attention, not just to grief but also to the life that goes on as grief does. Brimming with gorgeous, meandering images and prose, this book showcases a highly skilled artist at the top of her game."
