Cat comics
For people who like: cats
In five words: comics - cats - affirmations - repetitiveness - bites
Positive points: The pointillist colour scheme of Portuguese illustrator Luis Coelho is beautiful and deserves a mention.
Some of the affirmations are spot on and worth framing.
Negative points: The way the cats are pictured becomes a bit creepy (big eyes at the end of almost each comic, little devils, ...). Furthermore it seems as if every cat doesn't do anything else than bite. Which is not only quite unrealistic but annoying as well. For me this unrelatedness and the extreme repetitiveness form the death blow of this book.
Quote: "In the here / In the now / No worries / Only meow"
More info: This collection of comics is an extension of the popular Instagram @purr.in.ink
Rating: 2* (unpopular opinion as most people give 4 or 5 stars)
Publication date: 22.10.2024

Een indringend verhaal op het scherp van de snede, vanuit de belevingswereld van de strafrechtadvocate die als slachtoffer moet strijden voor een eerlijke behandeling onder het recht waar ze altijd in heeft geloofd.
