Overview
A GLANCE BACKWARD is a surreal, introspective graphic novel by Pierre Paquet, illustrated by Tony Sandoval, that explores themes of childhood, grief, and the transition into adulthood. The story follows Joey, an eleven-year-old boy whose world is turned upside down when he finds himself pulled into the walls of his own home, trapped in a strange realm where each brick is a new experience.
As Joey searches for a way out, he encounters intriguing and eerie characters who guide him through a journey of self-discovery and emotional turmoil. The novel, reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, blends fantasy and psychological depth, offering a poignant reflection on responsibility, love, and the inevitable realities of life and death.
