OUT OF STOCK!
Jul Gordon's deceptively simple drawings, evoking – somewhat – the French children's literature of Madeline and Babar, here, in the pages of Parc, blend and build to create a portrait of an extended family living (trapped?) in a walled community, which proves to be a fertile environment for the growth of an absurd existence that breeds a chaotic, sometimes violent, ennui.
It has some fans:
"Jul Gordon's drawing is magnificent. You feel every line and blob and smear of her world in your bones. I love this book." – Anders Nilsen
"Parc is a great, touching picture story by Jul Gordon, excitingly told, wondrously comically drawn, about life as it really is: with the ancestors, the weather, the vermin and love." – Anke Fuchtengerger
"Reading Jul's books is a mystical experience, Every detail speaks to me in an unknown language while I can't stop listening." – Max Baitinger
"Jul is responsible for the funniest and most absurd comic panels I have ever seen. There is nothing like Jul's dark humor out there. Her scratchy line and wonderful color palette are absolutely perfect for the surreal sceneries and priceless dialogues. If you're looking for something truly original in contemporary comics, keep an eye out for Jul's comcs." – Anna Haifisch
