There- Patrick is quickly drawn back into the dramas of his two adult siblings- his overbearing mother- and his browbeaten father- all of whom are still haunted by different versions of his youngest brother- Tommy- who drowned decades ago. ROYAL CITY is a sprawling- ambitious graphic novel that charts the lives- loves- and losses of a troubled family and a vanishing town across three decades. This deluxe hardcover edition collects the entire ROYAL CITY in one complete volume with behind-the-scenes material that takes readers deeper into both LEMIRE's original story and his creative process.
