Produktbeschreibung
A portrait of creative ambition, digital saturation, and the strange, sideways momentum of late twenties life. Things seem to finally be falling into place for Laura. At 29, she's just received a prestigious "Young Artist Grant" to write her debut novel, and after a rocky couple of years, her future should be looking bright. Instead, she finds herself suspended in a kind of limbo--half-heartedly working out with friends at the gym, tangled in a messy relationship with a married man, and haunted by flashes of her high school years, when tomorrow felt like it was full of possibilities that already seem to have faded away. Wry, elliptical, and intimate, Physical Education perfectly captures the quiet absurdities of the algorithmic age and the familiar ways in which we scroll, strive, sweat, and stall our way through modern life. A smart, emotionally resonant work for readers of Jillian Tamaki's Boundless and Eleanor Davis' The Hard Tomorrow.
Autorenporträt
Joana Mosi is an award-winning visual artist and cartoonist based in Lisbon, Portugal. Born and raised close to the sea, Joana has a really hard time sitting still in one place for a long time (which is a problem when your job requires you to spend lots of time at a drawing table) so she ends up traveling a lot, participating in art residencies and comics festivals across the globe. While she's planning her next artistic endeavor, she stays fresh by teaching (and learning from) new generations of creators.
