Beautifully drawn, hauntingly tragic tales. It's pretty neat to see songs I've heard so many times interpreted as comics.

This book is comprised of 5 short stories in graphic novel format. Each of the stories was inspired by a murder ballad such as Where the Wild Roses Grow by Nick Cave.
This was a pretty quick but intense read.

Zeer mooie tekeningen gemaakt met een sterke techniek. Ik had graag songlyrics erbij gehad, omdat ik nog erg weinig van murder ballads kende.

I bumped this up to a 3 star for the art and just how fucking nice this book feels to hold and look at, but if it was based on writing alone it would be a 2 star. I wish there had been more context given for each murder ballad a story was based on - it would give good framework and make them feel stronger as short comics.
