Mother, come home

With his clean, distinctive art style and poignant storytelling, up-and-coming indie comics sensation Paul Hornschemeier has earned comparisons to and accolades from today's top graphic novelists. Mother, Come Home is Hornschemeier's graphic novel debut-the quietly stunning tale of a father and son struggling, by varying degrees of escapism and fantasy, to come to terms with the death of the family's mother. The story seamlessly weaves through the surreal and the painfully factual, guided by the careful, somber colors and inventive pacing unique to Hornschmeier's storytelling. Mother, Come Home extracts almost tangible drama from the most tranquil of moments, making that which is unspoken in each panel easily audible, and almost uncomfortably experienced.

  • ""Thomas tiene siete años y acaba de perder a su madre. A pesar de sus esfuerzos por superar su pérdida, tanto él como su padre son incapaces de iniciar con una nueva vida. Disfrazado con una máscara de léon y una capa de terciopelo rojo, Thomas se convierte en el guardián de los lugares que solía frecuentar su madre mientras su padre se distancia progresivamente de la realidad"--Dust jacket flap."
  • "Un petit garçon se pare d'une tête de lionceau pour traverser le désespoir causé par la mort de sa mère."
  • "Klappentext: Diese außergewöhnliche Graphic Novel besticht sowohl durch ihre klaren Zeichnungen als auch durch ihre eindringliche Geschichte. Thomas und sein Vater müssen nach dem Tod der Mutter ihr Leben neu beginnen, doch der Vater kommt nicht über den Verlust hinweg. Stattdessen ist es an seinem siebenjährigen Sohn, den Alltag zu organisieren und die Familie zu stützen. Paul Hornschemeiers Graphic Novel wurde in den USA von der Kritik gefeiert und wird sicher auch in Deutschland für Begeisterung sorgen. Selten wird im Comic so pointiert und bewegend erzählt."
