Ordinary Victories, v. 1 & 2 (Paperback)

One of the most acclaimed graphic novels of the decade is now available in a specially priced banded set of the 2 volumes. This is the story of Marc, a photographer who's tired, of a very patient chick he meets, of banal horrors and of his pain-in-the-neck cat.
It's the story of his art thrown against heavy anxiety attacks; of a really cute woman in his small town who seems to take to him against all odds; of the old neighbor, a peaceful likable fellah until you get to know his disturbing role in the war...
Called one of five best graphic novels by "TIME" magazine on its release, it was also a "Booklist" top 10 graphic novel of the year: "Superb marriage of literary realism and comics." "Like any great work of art, it is possible to hold the pages up and through them, see the world" said Comic Book Resources.
