The Park
The Park

Existential clowns, modern tragedies, redemptive nature's power.

For those who appreciate the complexities of human emotions and relationships, "The Park" serves as a visually encompassing and thought-provoking graphic novel. Oscar Zarate masterfully blends elements of Greek tragedy and slapstick comedy, set against a vibrant London park backdrop. It's a contemporary tale that explores the interconnectedness of lives, the grey areas of reality, and the healing embrace of nature and love.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon, an incident takes place in a North London park. Chris is accidentally bitten by an excited dog and aims a defensive kick at it. The owner, well-known polemicist Ivan Grubb, takes to his blog to express his outrage, spinning the story to sit happily within his own narrative. When Ivan and Chris relate the event to their children, they are surprised and confused by the strength of feeling their reactions have provoked. The Park is a delicate examination of how anger, repression, and powerlessness can overwhelm even the most logical and well-intentioned person in a confusing modern world.
