Been catching up on some Canadian Content the last few days.
The New York Diary by Julie Doucet
I think anyone that knows me can figure out WHY I love this book so much. An autobio comic about when Julie moved from Montreal to live with her new boyfriend in New York in 1991. Fantastic book with fantastic, full, busy black and white art. I adore it.
Paul Has a Summer Job by Michel Rabagliati
A really sweet coming of age story taking place in the Summer of 1979. Really clean, simple art, this book just made me feel good. Fantastic!
Essex County Vol 1: Tales From the Farm by Jeff Lemire
A sad, soft story of young Lester, a boy who's mother has recently passed away, so he has to live with his uncle on his farm. And he always wears his superhero mask and cape. Very touching and made me tear up. ; ; The art is lose and messy but also very focused and clean. A great book, I look forward to reading the next 2 Essex County books.
