About Nymph

Product Description In this fairy tale of a graphic novel, a mysterious, tiny being upsets the balance of the woods. A lone, defenseless pupa has rained down from the sky. An assembly of talking birds and trees agree to protect "Dolly" as it begins to evolve ― but into what? As the humanoid creature starts showing a predilection for flight and music, magical clues start unveiling themselves. Italian award-winning cartoonist Leila Marzocchi's terrifically lush scratchboard drawings are a perfect companion to her witty dialogue and profound storytelling. Nymph gets to the heart of both human and Mother Nature to prove that, to raise a child-like larva, it takes a village. Or at least a forest. Full-color illustrations throughout. Review "This heartwarming fantasy, filled with amusing and distinct characters, is a tale of found family, the importance of working together as a community, and finding your true self." ― Booklist"A dreamy, childlike fantasy with a bracingly adult perspective, the comic defies categorization, metamorphosing like its heroine in strange and unexpected ways." ― Publishers Weekly"In the stories of Leila Marzocchi, the composition, the characters, the use of light and colors denote great imagination and enormous intelligence." ― Sequart About the Author LEILA MARZOCCHI is a critically acclaimed illustrator and comic artist, born in Bologna. She has published work in Reporter, Il Manifesto and L'Unita, and she co-founded the magazine Fuego.
