Binding: Hardcover
Description: How would you live with nothing but your name? Manel Naher wants out. In a world where your name is currency it's tough to make ends meet. It's even tougher when you share a name with a rising pop star. The city is unbearable endless high - rises social climbers left and right and nothing but names as far as the eye can see. But Manel is looking a little bit farther just beyond the horizon and she's even convinced her buddy Ali of how much more could be lying in wait right outside city limits. When a sudden heart attack induced by diminished name recognition foils Manel's plans gradual change becomes a catalyst for a complete lifestyle overhaul. This stylish absurd comedy of contemporary manners skewers the human condition in persistent self - promo. Sharp architectural lines are accented by decisively mellow hues building a humorously grim world unexpectedly bathed in nothing but light. An exciting debut from a fresh perspective The Great Beyond showcases newcomer L a Murawiec's command of comics language and satirizes a sprawling metropolis its politics and its extraordinary inhabitants.
