From this perch comes a revelation about adolescence that is both subtle and coolly beautiful. Critics have pointed out Clowes's cynicism and vicious social commentary, but if you concentrate on those aspects, you'll miss the exquisite whole that Clowes has captured. Each chapter ends with melancholia that builds towards the amazing, detached, ghostlike ending.]]> 62953 13 43003 book 1997 Ghost World total:4361|5:1408|4:1789|3:911|2:203|1:50| 4361 17385 5393 308 5129 3.91 9061 600 126144 4.15 181 13 44147998 26511 62953 1560974273 9781560974277 291 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170613516m/62953.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62953.Ghost_World 3.98 4131 Already one of the most heavily-publicized graphic novels in history, this new edition (featuring new covers by Clowes) should make the book more popular than ever.
