Iris: A Novel for Viewers [Paperback]

The characters emotions drive the anti-capitalist, dystopian narrative inAvailable for the first time in English, this first-ever Dutch graphic novel is a tour-de-force in all its 1960s psychedelic, pop art, and playfully erotic glory. Tjong-Khing draws on psychedelic and pop art influences, using exaggerated figures, flamboyant gestures, and vivid color to evoke an uncanny sense of movement and unbridled emotion in this fascinatingly surreal dystopian science fiction pop fantasia. A candy-colored, head-spinning trip through a prescient vision of our near future as imagined over 50 years ago. ... Its clearly a product of its time, with all the free-love exhibitionism, wild fashions, and dreamy psychedelia one would expect, but Khings?singular vision ensures that it transcends its era and stands as a masterful work of art for all time.
