"A surprising, wry, and deeply moving reflection on despair and the way back out. Ten years after finishing the original French edition of Maybe Later - the book in which the French superstar cartooning duo Philippe Dupuy and Charles Berberian worked separately for the first time - Dupuy set out on his own again with Haunted. Here, entirely independent, gone are the tightly constructed narratives and urbane, elegant graphics of his projects with Berberian. In their place, roughed-in drawings give an urgent, spontaneous feeling to a series of hallucinatory stories and dreamlike sequences that register the raw distress of solitude and self-doubt - the dark core of the material held in balance by Dupuy's acid humor and lyrical sensibility." -Drawn and Quarterly
