Publisher's Synopsis
The Ticking is the story of Edison Steelhead,
a boy who at birth takes his mother's life and his father's deformed face.
Secreted away by his father to be raised in a remote island lighthouse, Edison
relates to his surroundings in the only way he knows how--by capturing them in
his sketchbook. Able to find beauty in even the most grotesque of things, Edison
embraces his own unsettling appearance and sets out to confront the rest of the
world.
Waiting for him on its alien shores are the sights and experiences that will give shape to both his future and his past. Written and illustrated by acclaimed artist Renée French, The Ticking is a compelling work of graphic literature, a reminder that before we can appreciate the beauty around us, we must first find it within ourselves. A gorgeous 216-page hardcover graphic novel, designed by Jordan Crane.
