Hicksville #[nn]

Dylan Horrocks' Hicksville arrives in this 2010 Victoria University Press edition with a cover as atmospheric as the work itself — a woman in a flowing red dress stands on a windswept coastal road, scattered pages swirling around her feet as a lighthouse beam cuts through a deep blue night sky. The image captures something quietly elemental: storytelling, solitude, and the pull of a place where comics matter deeply. For anyone drawn to thoughtful, literary comics, this is a book that rewards a long, unhurried read.
