CLOWES, DANIEL
Monica is a series of interconnected narratives that collectively tell the life story actually, stories of its title character. Clowes calls upon a lifetime of inspiration to create the most complex and per - sonal graphic novel of his distinguished career. Rich with visual detail, an impeccable ear for language and dialogue, and thrilling twists, Monica is a multilayered masterpiece in comics form that alludes to many of the genres that have defined the medium war, romance, horror, crime, the supernatural, etc. but in a mysterious, uncategorizable, and quintessentially Clowesian way that rewards multiple readings.
