A review by coleycole
Alice in Sunderland by Bryan Talbot

2.0

This graphic novel is totally ADD, which isn't always a bad thing, but I couldn't get into it. The layout is interesting -- he uses lots of old photos, playbills, newspapers, etc. collaged in with the text and drawings -- but I wasn't crazy about the original art. The lack of through-line made it hard for me to invest in it. Sometimes I enjoy that style, but there was no central story for the author to touch back to -- he didn't even utilize the Alice stories much...
