Ghost World [Paperback]

1998 Ignatz Award Winner, Outstanding Graphic Novel: The inspiration for the feature film and one of the most acclaimedgraphic novels ever. Ranked #6 of The 20 Best Graphic Novels of the Decade (2009). Ranked #10 of The 25 Greatest Gen X Books of All Time (2009). [Clowes] spells out the realities of teen angst as powerfully and authentically as Salinger did in The most readable comic of the year. The appeal of Daniel Clowes breakout graphic novel lies not from what could be predictable plotting, but from its engaging character work. It is the relationship between outsider teens Enid and Rebecca that holds readers in its hilariously cynical sway from panel one.
