Aprašymas

Field Notes: Coming-of-Age Comics and Tales of Rural Resistance features short stories inspired by real rural teens from around the U.S. Each story takes place in a different rural setting spanning from the Appalachian mountains to the deserts of the Southwest. Each story features rural teens who have one thing in common: they have parts of their identity which may not fit the stereotype of a rural person. Each story dives into new characters' lives, providing vivid details as to how their rural place shapes their decision-making, their relationships, and their identities. The book's stories feel authentic because they are - they are inspired by real events and real people. This YA short story collection will have immense reach among younger teens today, starting as young as middle school. FIELD NOTES will bring a lighthearted way to understand and cope with difficult situations many high schoolers-- especially those who are queer and/or BIPOC -- may face. However, this reach isn't limited as the multi-chapter anthology has a diverse cast. Everyone may feel represented in this anthology, which is where its strengths lie, to reach a broad audience in the realm of graphic fiction as well as young adult literature.
