{"product_id":"lunar-0523dq907","title":"BEVERLY TP (MR) (Backorder, Allow 4-5 Weeks)","description":"\u003cp\u003eNick Drnaso's comics mercilessly reveal the sterile sameness of the suburbs. Connected by a series of gossipy teens, the modern lost souls of Beverly struggle with sexual anxieties that are just barely repressed and social insecurities that undermine every word they speak. A group of teenagers pick up trash on the side of the highway--flirting, preening, and ignoring a potentially violent loner in their midst. A college student brings her sort-of boyfriend to a disastrous house party with her high-school acquaintances. A young woman experiences a traumatic incident at the pizza shop where she works and the fallout reveals the racial tensions simmering below the surface. Again and again, the civilized façade of Drnaso's pitch-perfect surburban sprawl and pasty Midwestern protagonists cracks in the face of violence and quiet brutality. Drnaso's bleak social satire in Beverly reveals a brilliant command of the social milieu of twenty-first-century existence, echoing the black comic work of Todd Solondz, Sam Lipsyte, and Daniel Clowes. Precisely and hauntingly recounted, each chapter of Beverly reveals something new--and yet familiar--about the world in which we live.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DRAWN \u0026 QUARTERLY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41245597597754,"sku":"0523DQ907","price":44.7,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/6609\/9002\/files\/0523DQ907.jpg?v=1771073267","url":"https:\/\/comicbookeroo.com\/products\/lunar-0523dq907","provider":"Comicbookeroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
