ajw89 's review for:

Shubeik Lubeik by Deena Mohamed

5.0

---

one of the best graphic novels i've ever read. this thick and self-contained trilogy covers so many feelings, so much of the human condition, so much of Egyptian culture, and does so through creating an entire universe around the extraction of fictional resources that mirrors our world so well and in such a grounded way that it makes you almost forget the "magical" part of magical realism.

read on Libby.
