  • Summary:

    Mimi enjoys a quiet, productive life in her tree house in the Flat Fields with her companion Bobo, until a mysterious and disturbing recurring dream of demons and a long-haired deity becomes impossible to ignore. In the Evergreen Woods live dangerous creatures who can help her, but will she leave the comfort of her home to find answers? An epic tale of affairs, alliances, and friendships in a quest for power and self-discovery, this collects the first three volumes of Pizzo’s acclaimed, self-published series.

    On the surface, Alabaster’s “cute” art seems to introduce a family-friendly adventure, but there is a much darker side to the series. A fantasy story taking inspiration from all manner of folk stories and fairy tales, MIMI AND THE WOLVES is based on some deeply personal experiences, as it discusses abusive relationships, toxic power structures, and the ways in which women are often cajoled into handing over their own personal agency.
