Review:
"This beautiful book is a reminder that hope can nest in unexpected surroundings." —James Smart, Guardian
"[The] master of the long-form comics . . . This is a picture book of an odd and eerie beauty." —National Geographic Traveler
"[It] makes an eloquent case for what comics can say by refusing to say anything, at least with language . . . Obviously beautiful . . . The story is elegantly expressed by the form . . . I can’t think of many non-graphic novels published this year that match the emotional force and formal deftness of [Cormorance]." —James Kidd, Literary Review
"Fantastic . . . A bereavement for a child must be utterly devastating, confusing and forever haunting, and I think Nick approaches this subject in a very clever and thoughtful way . . . The momentum pulls you through the narrative, leading you to fantastic pull-out spreads of natural wonder." —Matt Sewell, Birdwatch
