Tillie Walden''s complex, lyrical stories about queer love, fantasy, coming-of-age, and cats are now available in this collection. In ''The End of Summer,'' Lars is battling illness and boredom in a secluded castle at the start of an endless winter with a giant cat to keep him company and fraying family bonds to test his strength. In ''I Love This Part,'' two small-town girls kill time and try to muddle through school when an unexpected romance blooms. And the surreal ''A City Inside'' recounts one woman''s life from childhood on, in a poetic tale about coming-of-age when you think you''re past all that. This graphic novel also includes never-before collected early sketches, webcomics, including the short comic ''What It''s Like To Be Gay In An All-Girls Middle School,'' which shot Tillie to fame on both sides of the Atlantic. ''A seamless integration of art and feeling.'' - Kirkus Reviews. ''[An] intimate peek into the creative trajectory of a brilliant author and illustrator.'' - School Library Journal.
