Reviews
Doug Wright Award Nomination: best small-press book " Old Caves is an unusual graphic novel for prioritizing the beauty of landscapes over plot, leading to a contemplative experience. It follows a middle-aged man living in an extremely remote location during winter [...] Landry supplies silhouettes in white, and a few black marks, almost abstract to create the impression of animal tracks in the snow. There's a memorable wordless image viewed from above of the man walking through the woods [...] If you're of the inclination, time and again you'll pause during reading as another eye-catching depiction of nature catches the eye." -- Slings and Arrows "Landry's black-and-white art makes lyrical use of negative space, rendering the mountains with magisterial effect. Unlike many tales of self-separating loners, this maintains a profound emotional through line, mostly through the letters: "I could punch and kick and kiss you all at once," the protagonist's wife writes. Landry depicts the costs of separation from society with piercing visual poetry."-- Publishers Weekly, " Old Caves is an unusual graphic novel for prioritizing the beauty of landscapes over plot, leading to a contemplative experience.

- v***v (2076)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
