Críticas

"The black-and-white palette, masterly pacing, and evocative compositions create a spare, precise, and emotive masterpiece of artistic control." --Library Journal "Like an engrossing but terrifying dream, de Jongh's dark, circular psychological drama...gets its hooks in readers immediately." --Publishers Weekly

Reseña del editor

Simon, a bookseller, has hit hard times. The financial crisis has hit and sales have slumped; his store looks set to close, and he has become increasingly withdrawn. Returning from his storeroom in the woods, he stops at an isolated railroad crossing. There, he witnesses a suicide. The moment hits him like a bomb. Withdrawing deeper into himself, Simon is haunted by memories from his past - memories repressed, from a time he'd prefer to forget. It is only by chance that he meets Regina, a young girl who begins to provide the comfort and support he needs. But who is Regina, and can she help him come to terms with the loss of a childhood friend? A beautifully drawn and impressively crafted debut from Aimee de Jongh, The Return of the Honey Buzzard is a compelling, cinematic and emotionally perceptive graphic novel about confronting the past and starting again.
