Description
Joyous musings on the meaningful and the mundane for troubled times.
In her debut graphic novel, Sarah Firth ponders some of life's deepest philosophical questions: Why are we here? How are we supposed to get along with one another? What on earth is that slug doing in my bathroom sink?
From daydreams and pop culture memes to the teachings of science, philosophy, and history, Firth weaves together a mix of great and silly ideas based on her own lived experience, all tossed together with unique energy, boundless curiosity and humor, and colorful, detailed, kinetic drawings. Through eight autobiographical visual essays, Firth explores how to live better in the modern world; ways to be more compassionate toward herself, others, and the planet; and how everything does, eventually, connect.
Honest, profound, and profane, Everything Eventually Connects is a life-affirming book about the joys and pains of living in a hypercomplex and uncertain world.
