Exploring food, change, grief, healing, and memory, this poignant debut follows Sohini’s journey from India to New York City, a place she had long-traveled to through books, TV, and films. In Calcutta, she, her boyfriend, and a friend shared an apartment with turquoise walls. After a hard breakup, the author chases the “impossible dream” of New York. Comforted by big city life’s anonymity and countless possibilities, Sohini forges a home of her making. I lingered in these pages, perusing book spines. Grab this intimate graphic memoir with its luminous bookshelves and buildings stretching up, up, up, especially if you enjoyed Kristen Radtke’s Seek You.
