1977: imaginary backcover blurbs (1 of 3)

Smashes history, both textbook and memory, into fragments and then reassembles it into an anti-chronological “narrative” (in quotes), this collage of memoir, charts and sampled text is tied together by the thinnest of threads for the reader to pull or be pulled by.

Taking nostalgia to its root in battle and sickness, the writer/illustrator challenges the notion that time that has passed between then and now.

If I had to sum this up in one word, I couldn’t.
