Here's a collection of offbeat stories about which it's publisher D&Q has this to say:
I Ate the Whole World to Find You maps the topography of trauma, treasures, and loss imposed onto the body of Jenny, a twenty-something-going-on-thirty-something partial hot mess who’s routing her way more firmly into adulthood. As she navigates friendship, family, and romantic relationships, will her inability to communicate destroy her, or ultimately be her rebirth?
A coworker-turned-prospective-lover confesses a hard-to-swallow fetish. A train ride fantastically goes off the rails as old habits get dragged across the tracks. Cousins revisit summer holiday bliss—or was it really horror? Exes fumble an attempt to reconnect over a dip in the pool on a squelching summer day. And an expectant mother slips into an unusual place as she embarks on a communion with her baby more pure than language can accommodate.
Set against an exquisitely lush Australian backdrop, Rachel Ang’s pencils are fluid yet scratchy, precise and evocative, bringing to life the inner and external world of Jenny with stunning realism and gushing imagination. Sprinkled with speculative fiction and fantasy, Ang’s radiant debut collection introduces a dynamic voice to comics, and establishes Ang as one of the most exciting short-story writers working in comics today.
Here's what some of her peers would like you to know about it:
“Here are stories of the body’s darkest moments and profoundest ecstasies, bound up in a lush, strange, genre-defying collection.” —Carmen Maria Machado, Her Body and Other Parties
“I Ate the Whole World to Find You is a mesmerising collection of dancing lights and shadows, sometimes perplexing and unsettling, always beautiful. Their characters navigate attraction, old hurts and the eternal dilemma of having a body—ushered with the utmost care by Rachel Ang’s gestural, sensual cartooning.” —Lee Lai, Stone Fruit
“Rachel Ang’s I Ate the Whole World to Find You combines my two favourite flavours: strange and evocative. They draw a beautifully reverberating world that transcends language so that we can see the splendour of it all anew. This collection is a hallucination, a holy text, an experience to return to again and again.” —Rachel Yoder, Nightbitch
