Beautiful, but hard to follow
3 stars
It's beautiful, no doubt about it. The book, as a whole, is hard to follow, and the art can often confuse what's going on.

A gorgeous and brutal story that revolts against the notion of violence as the only response to a life without hope.
The Sea, secretly more complex than anyone imagined, rises one day. The horizon folds as the Sea absorbs the world and transforms everything that's been pulled inside it. Three kids find themselves unmoored and lost, but brought together by the physical and mental changes wrought by the tides and a desire to avoid harming any living creature.
It's beautiful, no doubt about it. The book, as a whole, is hard to follow, and the art can often confuse what's going on.
