House Of Java Vol. 2: v. 2 (The House of Java) - Tapa blanda

The newest collection of warm slice of life stories without the cynicism. Some melancholic, some hopeful, some humorous, all keenly and quietly observant. Main stories include Steven exploring the blurry line between friendship and love between 2 comics fans, Tide Pools where a visiting student encounters a girl with an itch to move on and out of her small town life but no gumption to go through with it, the particularly remarkable May 27th which brings a student social worker face to face with delinquency brought on by lower class despair, and The Burial, with its aura of mystery, in which a terrible secret is literally unearthed leading to an insightful revelation. Collected from the comic book issues 1 through 4.
