The book, a fantastic family saga spanning three generations and an entire continent, was a critical smash named to many 'Best of 2010' lists. Fantagraphics is proud to bring this perennial classic back in print with a new paperback edition. Artichoke Tales is a coming-of-age story about a young girl named Brigitte whose family is caught between the two warring sides of a civil war. It takes place in a world that echoes our own, but whose people have artichoke leaves instead of hair. Influenced in equal parts by Little House on the Prairie, The Thorn Birds, Dharma Bums, and Cold Mountain, Kelso weaves a moving story about family amidst war. Kelso's visual storytelling uniquely combines delicate linework with rhythmic page compositions, creating a dramatic tension between intimate, ruminative character studies and the unflinching depiction of the consequences of war and carnage, lending cohesion and resonance to a generational epic.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49742946337041,"sku":"NGR9781683966753","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50111315247377,"sku":"GOR013859538","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51046583697681,"sku":"NIN9781683966753","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1683966759.jpg?v=1781172508"},{"product_id":"who-will-make-the-pancakes-book-megan-kelso-9781683966708","title":"Who Will Make the Pancakes","description":"Who Will Make The Pancakes collects five deeply social stories by the acclaimed cartoonist Megan Kelso, exploring the connective tissue that binds us together despite our individual, interior experience. These stories, created over the past 15 years - roughly contemporaneously with the author's own journey as a mother - wrestle with the concept of motherhood and the way the experience informs and impacts concepts of identity, racism, class, love, and even abuse. Taken collectively, Who Will Make The Pancakes showcases Kelso's unique voice in graphic fiction and stylistic command.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49744637559057,"sku":"NGR9781683966708","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50764871565585,"sku":"CIN1683966708VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51047028719889,"sku":"NIN9781683966708","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53029783896337,"sku":"GOR012748257","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1683966708.jpg?v=1750863949"},{"product_id":"squirrel-mother-book-megan-kelso-9781560977469","title":"The Squirrel Mother","description":"Megan Kelso's second collection of graphic short stories.
