Table of ContentsReviewsFor a new generation never exposed to the original, it's a vivid insight into one of the most fascinatingly creative and unwaveringly troubled writers of his generation. -Publisher's Weekly This 170-page graphic novel is nothing short of breathtaking. Little's cartoony characters and herky-jerky frames and lettering add to the drug-fueled stories contained within. The colors pop on every page, whether you find yourself in a dark, seedy hotel room or the bright outdoors. -verbicide Author InformationThree time Eisner nominee and Xeric recipient, Troy Little began a career in animation after graduating college and In 2000 he began self-publishing his comic series Chiaroscuro which garnered him both a Xeric and PEICA grant and was eventually collected by IDW Publishing and published in 2007.His second book, Angora Napkin was published in 2009 with IDW and was nominated for the prestigious Eisner Award (Best Publications for Teens) in 2010.
