Summary
"Where does a young boy turn when his whole world suddenly disappears? What turns two brothers from an unstoppable team into bitterly estranged loners? How does the simple-hearted care of one middle-aged nurse reveal the scars of an entire community, and can anything heal the wounds caused by a century of deception? Jeff Lemire pays tribute to his roots with Essex County, a trilogy of graphic novels set in an imaginary version of his hometown, the eccentric farming community of Essex County, Ontario, Canada. Here, Lemire crafts an intimate study of one community through the years, and a tender meditation on family, memory, grief, secrets, and reconciliation. This new edition collects the complete trilogy (Tales from the Farm, Ghost Stories, and The Country Nurse) in one volume. Also included are over 40-pages of previously unpublished material, including two new stories."--, Amazon
