"A sweeping magical-realist coming-of-age story set after the apocalypse." -- The New York Times "Ríos pits a group of teens against a changed world in a bid to survive in this stu nningly rendered postapocalyptic eco-horror graphic novel." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) 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. Anzuelo is the critically acclaimed, hand-watercolored graphic novel by the Eisner award-winning cartoonist Emma Ríos (Pretty Deadly, Mirror, I.D.). Show more
