RAFEL FRUMKIN, author of ConfidenceThe funniest, most moving and expansive graphic novel yet from the acclaimed author of The Con Artists and Americana. Who is Luke Healy?For over ten years, a graphic novelist called Luke Healy has invested all of his selfesteem into his career. Then, almost overnight, just as his brother is getting married, both seem to vanish. Spiralling and lacking purpose, he searches for identity in selfhelp books, replacement jobs and human connection and visits cheesy British hotels and abandoned Greek islands. Set against the backdrop of a dangerously changing global climate, with melting icecaps and flooding cities, SelfEsteem and the End of the World spans two decades of tragicomic selfdiscovery until the unlikely prospect of a Hollywood revival of Lukes work comes into view but what might be the cost?One of the finest cartoonists working today.
