The year is 1929 and Bobot is just another migrant worker in rural California. Or rather a migrant worker with a law degree from the Philippines reduced to manual labor in America. Bobot like so many other young Filipinos finds himself bunking in the fields picking fruit by day. When his cousin writes claiming to have spotted his estranged wife in nearby San Francisco he swipes a co - worker's favorite nightclub suit and heads to the big city to find her. What follows is classic noir with seedy dives mouthy pool sharks and obsession. Rina Ayuyang indulges her passion for old Hollywood and elaborate movie musicals while exploring her immigrant roots in a playful and mysterious drama creating something she never saw but always had hoped for a classic tale about people who looked just like her. The Man in the Mc Intosh Suit is a gripping romantic and psychological exploration of a fledgling community chasing the American dream in an unwelcoming society heightened by racial hostility and the bubbling undercurrent of the coming Great Depression.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Man In The Mcintosh Suit\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Ayuyang Rina\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Drawn And Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781770466661\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 212 Pages, Full-Colour Illustrations Throughout\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 5\/2\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Graphic Novels: True Stories \u0026amp; Non-Fiction","brand":"Ayuyang Rina","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49623136928049,"sku":"IN-G-9781770466661","price":20.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781770466661.jpg?v=1724776814","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781770466661-the-man-in-the-mcintosh-suit","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
