Description

Formally innovative explorations bring poetry to the quotidianIn "Gloriana," Kevin Huizenga exposes the mechanics that underpin everyday life.

His protagonist, Glenn Ganges, has conversations about dish soap and library visits that are both faithful depictions of the mundane interactions we all have and so much more: existential dissections of the units that construct our lives.

Huizenga has an understated, quiet approach to story writing that allows his characters (and his readers) the self-awareness to recognize the humor and tragedy of every moment.

Huizenga's much-lauded work is finely detailed, and in its innovative use of form, it explores the boundaries of the comic medium, deconstructing and reconstructing panels to express temporality and lived experience more fully.

Presented in this expanded edition, "Gloriana "employs familiar settings and thorough, sometimes scientific explanations to reach thoughtful conclusions.
