"A lyrical reminiscence of Wyld's youthful fixation of sharks . . . To read their collaboration is to experience Sumner's artwork at least as much as Wyld's spare, reflective narration." --New York Times Book Review
"The darkly poetic voice Wyld evoked in her previous work reveals itself in a different way here, working within the constraints of writing text for a cartoon frame . . . The very terseness required here offers power, linguistic clarity and dramatic opportunities that draw the reader into an emotionally compelling world . . . The obvious touchstone is Alison Bechdel's Fun Home, and Wyld likewise delivers an incisive portrait of a father who provides a forceful foil for the main character . . . The power of the prose in Everything Is Teeth is magnified by Joe Sumner's illustrations, which combine primitive yet delicate portraits of the girl and her surroundings with viciously realistic renderings of sharks swimming through the pages . . . The narrator's fears, and her ultimate triumph over them, make for a magical trip into a world that we're happy to glimpse from the shore."From the award-winning author of All The Birds, Singing, a deeply moving graphic memoir about family, love, loss, and the irresistible forces that, like sharks, course through life unseen, ready to emerge at any moment.
Ever since she was a little girl, passing her summers in the brutal heat of coastal New South Wales, Evie Wyld has been captivated by sharks—by their innate ruthlessness, stealth, and immeasurable power. Young Evie would listen intently as farmers and fishermen told stories about being alone on the water at dusk; she would lose herself in books about legendary shark attacks, mesmerized by the photos of the victims. And even though she returned to London at the end of each summer, Australia's sharks never released their hold on her imagination. Now, in this quietly penetrating narrative of personal memories, beautifully rendered by illustrator Joe Sumner, Evie Wyld lends her exceptional voice to the telling of a story all her own.
