Second Thoughts

by Niklas Asker

Jess is a writer living in London. Andrew is a photographer on his way to New York. They do not fall in love -- not exactly -- but their brief encounter in Stansted Airport will impact both of their lives more than they can imagine. In Second Thoughts, the clean, emotional ink-work of Swedish newcomer Niklas Asker guides two characters through modern city life and love, as they struggle separately, yet somehow together.
Lost in Translation meets Stranger Than Fiction! Past and present, reality and fiction overlap in this sweet, haunting, and ultimately inspiring graphic novel of modern city life and love.

Breu història sobre les vides d’una escriptora bloquejada creativament i un fotògraf que es planteja una fugida endavant que es creuen, breument, en un aeroport.
Reflexions sobre la soledat i la repercussió de les decisions preses (i , sobretot, les no preses) per insignificants que semblin.
Una obra on els silencis prenen tanta o més importància que les paraules dites o que queden per dir, amb un to molt nòrdic.

Dibuix sense pretensions ni sorpreses. Fins i tot es podria dir que contingut (cosa que funciona de meravella a la història) .

L’única pega és que es fa breu.
Molt recomanable.
