Comic book series : The Lie and How We Told It

A friendship creaks under the strain of a fumbling encounter between its two participants, leaving them even more lonely and uncertain than before. Parrish's first graphic novel for Fantagraphics is a visual tour de force, navigating queer desire, masculinity, fear, and the ever-in-flux state of friendships. The Lie and How We Told It is a remarkably resonant work from an exciting new voice in contemporary graphic novels.
