The object
The object
Much as in Hernández's Palomar stories, the narrative wanders in and out of various threads and frequently shifts focus between scenes and characters. The artwork is simple, and the story unfolds in a grid of six panels to the page. In contrast to the sexually explicit, violent work on which his reputation rests, Hernández wanted to create a book that was appropriate for young readers, and drew much of the narrative from his own childhood memories.
