This is something special. Almost wordless, yet full to the brim with delicate narratives. There are little puzzles that resolve, there are weird and silly scenarios that nonetheless convey deep and heartfelt emotions. I found it often delightful, sometimes confusing, and very, very moving. This is an adult book, that covers breast removal and recovery and burlesque and sex and love and all kinds of other things. It's beautiful, whimsical, powerful.
