What does an eco-feminist movement from the future -- and a long-abandoned but never-forgotten indie comic, Leopold & Brink -- have to do with his predicament? From this SF framework emerges a metafictional memoir, as epic and intimate as life itself. Embarking in earnest with the onset of the 2020 lockdowns, Fink's years-long journey of graphic healing hit an unexpected detour when he received a brain cancer diagnosis midway through constructing this book. Not to be deterred, the tragedy and comedy of life become tools to break new liberative ground, a lifetime of drawing conjures fresh and playful visual expressions to compliment his stream of consciousness style.Vonnegut-esque slipstreams of memory weave together tumultuous youth, romantic misadventures, and the looping pathways of a working artist, in a tapestry of loss and longing.

A saga of catharsis and reconciliation, Breakthrough: Life on the Brink is a story to live by. Breakthrough is a tragicomic memoir detailing the author's search for belonging while navigating inadequate caregivers, romantic misadventures, the looping path of a career artist, and a terminal brain tumor. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
