Description

From the publisher:

Self-published comics and stories from cartoonist/musician Todd Webb (Seamonster, Mr Toast, Nickelodeon Magazine, The Adventures of Danny and Mike, Yo Gabba Gabba, Gallery1988, etc).

The Continuing Adventures of Katherine Mansfield is a collection of comic strips based on Mansfield's (New Zealand's most internationally famous literary export) personal diary.

Funny and depressing, dark and delightful, the episodes contained within this book speak volumes to anyone who's ever struggled with keeping the creative fires lit while battling the onslaught of the everyday.

Katherine Mansfield was a modernist who changed the way short stories were written in the English language - perhaps this slice of her story as drawn by Todd Webb (hey! that's me!) can do the same for comics...

Dylan Horrocks, author of Hicksville writes:

"What if Katherine Mansfield had drawn a diary comic? Misery, despair, existential angst - all rendered through a charming, poetic, modernist experiment. As Mansfield's compatriot, this makes my antipodean heart sing."
