Seller's Description:
Very Good: a copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Most items will be dispatched the same or the next working day.
Ghost World does for the graphic novel what Catcher in the Rye did for the coming-of-age book: it's a true portrait of adolescent alienation. The self-loathing Enid and complacent, blondish Becky are sunk in the ennui, idleness and perversity of a dead city. Daniel Clowes' panels have the same flat blue sameness; the effect is of that of Edward Hopper's studies in isolation. Clowes' streets are populated by Satanists, Don Knotts lookalikes, Catholic priest-pederasts, and the like. Yes, it's grotesque Jerryspringerland, but shifts into something more moving when Enid applies to college and the two ponder separation and a menage a trois with their friend Josh, who seems the only decent person besides Enid's father around them. There's both prankiness and pathos, a real yearning that seeps through when the two girls feud and Enid sobs on her bed. Clowes is a big fan of R. Crumb, but I wonder if his corner of the world isn't sadder and darker, because there are no big-legged girls in Clowes; sex isn't liberatory, it just happens while "The Jeffersons" blares on TV. In fact, it's vaguely anxious, repellent, empty even. Maybe Clowes is to Crumb what Beckett was to Joyce: after excess follows contraction, asceticism, an astringent Puritan retreat.
