Description
Set in a fictionalized rural Ontario community, this acclaimed graphic novel weaves together the lives of farmers, family members, and longtime residents whose histories are shaped by love, loss, silence, and regret. Through interlocking stories spanning generations, it explores how childhood wounds, buried secrets, and the passage of time can fracture relationships—and how compassion may offer a path toward healing. Rendered in stark, expressive black-and-white artwork, the book transforms the rhythms of small-town life into a deeply affecting meditation on memory, grief, family, and reconciliation.
