About this title

Synopsis

ABSENCE is a collection of missing pieces-stories that reflect on the complexities of relationships, or sometimes, on the lack of them. Each narrative explores the different ways absence manifests itself in our lives, whether through physical distance, emotional gaps, or unspoken thoughts. With a poetic and introspective approach, these urban tales invite the reader to pause and consider the hidden beauty in life's smallest moments. Through these stories, we discover how the subtle, often unnoticed details of daily life carry deep meaning and can shape our understanding of connection, loss, and everything in between.

Written and illustrated by Mario Cau, Brazilian award-winning graphic novelist.
