Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Clumsy is Jeffrey Brown's debut work Clumsy is the bittersweet story of a year long, long distance relationship, told through snippets of everyday life, drawn in a simple and elegantly awkward style that heightens the emotional impact and leaves you reminiscing about your own past love affairs. Oh, and it also has a lot of sex.

Clumsy is baldly intimate in a way that should be embarassing, but somehow isn't. It's the autobiographical story of a long-distance relationship, told in comic-style vignettes. Brown's artwork is both crude and nuanced; sometimes his drawings are barely better than stick figures, but their body language and faces are expressive nonetheless. He captures the bittersweetness of a failed relationship perfectly; I think everyone who reads this book finds something in it that is intensely familiar.
