Summary:
"The life of an orphaned boy is shaped by the devotion of a fantastical
Gull
in this lovingly rendered, entirely wordless graphic novel by a contemporary comics innovator. Told in striking colors and loose but confident lines, The
Gull
Yettin
's story begins when a young boy awakens late one night to find his home on fire. The boy is saved by a lanky, shapeshifting
Gull
(who may or may not be real). Orphaned by the fire, and now adrift in a boat piloted by the
Gull
, the boy faces an uncertain future, one that will be both helped and hindered by his new attendant. Without a word, Kessler builds a strange but recognizable world, using it to explore all the forms that grief, jealousy, longing, and love can take in our lives, and the compassion and cruelty that can dwell in a single heart. Filled with all the warmth and poignancy of a great folktale, The
Gull
Yettin
proves that Kessler is pushing comics to new heights"--From publisher.
