Publisher's Synopsis

The world of The Cloven: a place where facts are malleable; where genetic 'experiments' live in the margins beneath the freeway. Where secret societies make all the real decisions about the fate of our world, where billionaires filled with hubris insist on tweaking the universe for our own good, where fear and anxiety seep from people's pores so that we d rather believe the scripted television news than something we've actually seen; and yet where searching for one s place in the world - searching for one's home - is still the most powerful yearning of a person's soul.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
