frizzlecat 's review for:

Karmen by Guillem March
3.0

3.5/5 stars

The illustrations are creative and intelligent; this graphic novel plays with the structure of comic panels, offers gorgeous cityscapes, and portrays fluid motion effortlessly. I enjoyed the color scheme and the style.

The narrative is interesting to me; it is quite dark, and the images are explicit so if you are triggered by images of suicide, read with caution. I was intrigued by the premises of the story though, so I read it all in one quick sitting.

The ending is rather vague and so I shall need to read following volumes to better make sense of this one.

Also I should note that I read this through Netgalley.
