Acaparar cosas es una enfermedad mental, el famoso síndrome de Diógenes. Aquí lo tratan de una forma interesante, con un poco de Dentro del Laberinto y los mitos de Cthulhu. Ligero pero chulo.

What do we do with the things the dead left behind?

A trippy, creeping tale of hoarding, obsessive memory, and desire, unfortunately bogged down by too much explanation, paired with too little worldbuilding (if you can call it that; it's a house, after all) and action.

Unfortunately, the supposed emotional arcs that both Ruby and her mother go on to further explore and come to terms with the toxicity of their relationship are relatively stilted and uneven in equilibrium and pacing, and the ominous nature of the house and belongings was left to the side in favor of a deep dive into the psyche. It would have been nice to have the two of them hand in hand, had this been longer.

That being said, the art style (and the cat) were wonderful.

This was a weird and troubling graphic novel about a daughter visiting her estranged mother after the death of her father. The mother has some serious hoarding issues, but there are also some things that Ruby must come to terms in order to move forward.
