Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Unlikely explores the nature of relationships in this story of how Jeffrey Brown lost his virginity. A full-length graphic novel of excruciating detail and intimacy, drawn in an awkward style that both disarms the reader and heightens the emotional impact of the work.

Synopsis:

The follow-up to Jeffrey Brown's self-published debut hit, Clumsy. The bittersweet story of how Jeffrey Brown lost his virginity. A full-length graphic novel drawn in a simple and elegantly awkward style that heightens the emotional impact of the work.

crowyhead, September 15, 2006 (view all comments by crowyhead)
Another autobiographical story of a failed relationship, Unlikely is chronologically before Clumsy (Brown's previous graphic novel), and tells the story of Jeff's first lover. It's just as good, if not better, than Clumsy, although sometimes very painful to read. Watching this relationship fall apart is harder than seeing the relationship in Clumsy come to an end, because of all of Allisyn's baggage and Jeff's complete inability to deal with it. These books aren't for everyone; I think a lot of people might find them self-indulgent. But I love Brown's ability to write honestly about human relationships and the way that sometimes, everyone seems to come out looking like the bad guy.
