Big Questions by Anders Nilsen
3.0
First off, this book is huge and gorgeous, you just want to pick it up and handle it, and the simple drawing style is very easily readable.
I liked reading this book, but ultimately didn't love it. The early parts of the story, where it is just the birds talking was far more compelling to me than the later parts of the book with the humans and bird factions and crows and snake etc.
What is life all about? What do these things mean? Where are more doughnuts?
In the end I was just glad I had finished. I think that Andes Nilsen has a lot of potential and will produce more good work, but this one was an exercise in graphic storytelling and that's how it reads.
