One of Darren’s graphic novels, picked up to read while I was ill - there’s something about lying on the sofa barely able to move that makes comics appealing. Though describing modern graphic novels as comics will probably get me into trouble!

This as a slice of the life of a young Israeli man looking for his father who may have been the victim of a bus station bombing. Definitely not very amusing but it’s a good story, a bit surreal in places but much of that could also be because the setting is so foreign to me.
