Blankets

Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Half

(Paperback)-At 592 pages, Blankets may well be the single largest graphic novel ever published without being serialized first. Wrapped in the landscape of a blustery Wisconsin winter, Blankets explores the sibling rivalry of two brothers growing up in the isolated country, and the budding romance of two coming-of-age lovers. A tale of security and discovery, of playfulness and tragedy, of a fall from grace and the origins of faith. A profound and utterly beautiful work from Craig Thompson. The New Printing corrects 3 small typos, widening the spine graphics, but otherwise is identical to the first printing.

  1. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full Posted: Jul 3 2009

    I thought it would be good but, it was too great for words, i found it even more amazing that most of this happened to him, the drawings are excellent, perfect for any aspiring artists, or if your just looking for a good story. It also has the best combination of funny and sad as hell, and its really well written.

    One of the best novels, graphic or otherwise I have read. I could relate to the main character in many ways (crazy conservative religious family, religion and coming of age, Enlightenment). Highly recommended and well-written.

    This second graphic novel by Craig Thompson is phenomenal! The way he uses the graphic media to portray his autobiography is amazing. Recommended for any graphic novel fan, or anyone looking for lessons in life.
