Synopsis
Themes of reckoning, redemption, and the inevitability of love, and loss recur in this 2008 collection of Chris&;s work between the years 2002 and 2007. This volume showcases Wright&;s idiosyncratic drawing style, and multi layered narrative voice. In its brutality, and it&;s compassion, the world of Inkweed displays the author&;s determination to create an aesthetic capable of disseminating an entire world view.
