Slightly weird and surreal fable. Humanoid creatures with cat ears, racism, art-hating, self-exploration. It feels like an allegory about someone's real-world experience going from a repressed, patriarchal society to a theoretically more enlightened group that looks down them as an individual because they are from the previous group. I'm picturing someone who's going from a conservative amerikan existence to a more "progressive" community, but maybe I'm just projecting. :)

Ultimately pretty forgettable, tho. Even flipping through the pages a few weeks later, I had a hard time remembering what happens.

The color work here might be the most notable thing - touches of blue and purple, probably in poignant places, though I didn't notice on a single read.
