This One Summer

Rose and Windy are summer friends, and as soon as my family remembered, I went to Awago Beach. But this year it was different, they immediately found themselves involved in teenager love and family crisis. Creator of Skim investigated the mysterious adult world

Of course, Ross' father is still crappy jealous jokes, but her mother behaves like she does not want to be there. Also, living in a hut is not just about going to the beach. Rose and Windy are spending a lot of time now to learn about horror movie rentals, spy activities for teenagers working at corner shops, and sex in health classes.

Everything got crazy soon. Rose 's father left the hut and returned to town, and mothers became increasingly isolated. When her family collapsed, Rose concentrated on a young Duncan in a local square shop. When insisting that Dunc's girlfriend Jenny is pregnant, the girls realize that teenagers keep as much secret as adults in their lives.

"Family drama summer, the secret and change of a small seaside town ... a sharp observation and a luxurious illustration - victory."

"This summer is a graphic novel for readers who appreciate that shape and it is also a traditional fan who tells the future.If I am in the bookstore, selling it by hand to remind the photo of Reina's customer Telgemeier "But now, we are ready to respond to more complex themes, I'd like to sell by hand, this is a nice book."

"In touch, Tamakis caught the struggle of patchwork in summer, especially leading to a lack of curriculum, sadness, impression, perfection bitterness."

try it. Gillian and Mariko Tamaki This summer. Written and drawn by a pair of sisters, this summer followed two teenage girls as they were summoned at their summer lake side house. Normally, happy and innocent things have suddenly changed - as the two girls grow up, the tensions and their typical sunny holidays are obsessed by big problems like boys, battles, and Thunder it was done. Like Bechdel's entertainment facilities, Jillian Tamaki maintains its minimalist style, minimal color (black, white, lavender), and a clean and relaxed line.

Warm prose and exquisite black and white blue image, this summer balances the subtle summer traditional nostalgic power with the often harsh and aggressive lessons of life. Two girls, a local town teenager, and a group of parents are intertwined in delicate balance to overcome the pain of growing and cope with depression and deliberate, unintentional painful pregnancy That is why. And please respond to sadness and hope of life. This summer I gained outstanding evaluation and unprecedented honor for that wonderful art and thoughtful and delicate content.

This summer, art is as powerful as essay. And they work amazingly together to incorporate the concern and trauma of rose summer at Awago Beach. The wonderful summer of the beach is full of endless heavy rain, both of which help maintain the green bushes of beautiful trees, grapes, bushes, grasses, towata and surrounding forests. And then, there is a summer night sky filled with the moonlight which is eye-catching with stars. The details of the beach, the lake, the forest and even the Brewster convenience store are breathtaking and are in stark contrast to less detailed characters. The story and art are richly conveyed and juxtaposed to provide extraordinary depth and presence for the story and its realistic personality.
