Chiaroscuro: Book 1 by Troy Little

cthulhu_calamari's review

This is one of 3 graphic novels about artists figuring out what to do with their lives after graduation that I've picked up *this year alone*, but this is the only one about the artist writing the book itself. It's not meta, it's masturbatory, and the only self reflection you're likely to encounter is if that masturbation is done in front of a mirror. And a hardcover release? Did they publish his dry cleaning receipts for volume 2?

Walaupun most of the dialogue macam real conversation (slanga and stuff) dengan drawing yang aku kira amat superb (this dude can draw pretty well)-- aku a bit frustrated dengan jalan cerita yang agak lambat dan macam no point for maybe half of the book. But knowing that this is the first book-- mungkin jalan cerita yang lambat itu disengajakan jadi aku tabah sajalah baca sampai habis.

There's something wrong dengan apartment Steve. Dia patut dengar nasihat Kevin dan pindah. Menyampah pulak rasa bila ending Book 1 ni a bit confusing. Grr!

I liked this one a lot.
Hopefully a "Book Two" is in the works.
