( ) I don't normally read graphic novels, but after flipping through this book at the store, I knew I had to buy it. The panels consist of pencil sketches: rough, charming, and full of flaws, but each frame seemed to capture a lot of essence and detail. She uses smudges and occasionally erased drawings (where you can see the ghost of a figure right next to the final drawing) in a way that is really evocative. Her pencil strokes are varied and full of energy, some parts looking as if she woke up at 4a.m. to scribble them down as fast as humanly possible and other parts looking like she barely touched the paper. I love how she draws the bear, and I also love the dog, the snail-man, the woman on the crutches, and all the landscapes that look so familiar, yet are done with such concision. The story itself is moody and surreal, with occasional glimpses of humor, and I thought the drawing style really brought that mood out perfectly. Bonus: an interview with Amanda Vahamaki. It's like they took that freaky "MY ANUS IS BLEEDING" animated short, removed all reference to bleeding anuses, and added never forgetting exactly what it feels like to be a child with a lot of psychedelic wonders and horrors to get out and an endless expanse of paper and a freshly sharpened pencil.

Characterized by an intriguing disjointed rhythm and delicious pencil-smudged style, The Bun Field is defined by a surreal ebb-and-flow, possessing a deep sense of foreboding and hurt, yet maintaining a biting sense of humor. Amanda Vahamaki's first graphic novel is infused with a sense of abbreviated adolescence and a kind of grey sky banality. In this story, a young girl dreams of a dinosaur eating Donald Duck; wakes to find a bald, hulking stranger sharing her breakfast; leaves to take a car trip with a bear; falls and breaks a tooth, to have it replaced by an impatient dentist - from his dog's mouth no less; and pays back the favor by plowing a field of buns. Young people and anthropomorphic animals commingle in dreamy landscapes, performing mundane tasks that are skewed with an absurd and fantastic edge. Vahamaki's unique ideas are equally matched by her tactile drawings, creating a palpable world that is fresh and compelling. The Bun Field has been published in severallanguages.
