Description
Description
From road trips to doctors' offices to the mysterious spaces under the house, Kit Anderson's short stories explore the secrets and magic typically unseen in everyday life. A walk through the forest, a family move, a day in a normal life - Anderson's depictions of these ordinary moments transform them with a double-take, revealing the strangeness, surreality, and transformation within.
With powerful and personal emotional writing and art, thoughtfully combining magic and life as we all know it - these stories establish Kit Andreson as a presence in short comics-format fiction.

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Kit Anderson is an exceptional young talent. With years of graphic design experience, it's obvious that her comics are well-considered in terms of composition. However there's a welcome lack of slickness in her work... it is just visceral enough to really draw in the eye. Anderson is a restless, probing talent matching her themes against her use of technique in genre in a restrained, mature fashion." --High-Low
"Appealing to readers from young adults to older individuals, this offers a unique and comforting sensation reminiscent of the timeless magic found in Ursula K. Le Guin's Wizard of Earthsea." -- Booklist
"Everything I could wish for in a collection. Savor it slowly, and remember what it means to be alive." -- The Beat
"Glorious. Kit Anderson is emphatically travelling in her own storytelling trajectory, but I'd be lying if I said that the great Tillie Walden didn't instinctively spring to mind." -- Page 45
