A modern daySEX & DEATH?are the primal subjects that Pier Dola explores with unrelenting tenacity in his incendiary debut graphic novel. A book so visceral, so unforgiving, so unrelenting that even descriptions or synopses of it arent for the faint of heart. Its an absolute fucking gut-punch of a comic, in other words, and even though its also hysterically funny, the humor in no way alleviates the psychological pressure that literally bears down on you from first page to last. One of the most inventive and stunning pieces of comic art Ive seen in years. Pier Dola is extremely successful at what he's doing and he's doing exactly what he wants to do. There's a lot in here that's very correctly damning of society.
