The Sentence - Matthew Baker - Bog

Bag om The Sentence

"A graphic novel told in the form of a sentence diagram. A single 6732-word sentence, diagrammed in full. Set in a parallel-universe United States in which the government has recently been overthrown by a military coup, the story is narrated by a lonely young grammar professor, Riley, who is suddenly branded a traitor by the new regime. Bewildered by the charges, and fearing a death sentence, Riley manages to flee to an anarchist commune in the wilderness. After a lifetime of feeling alienated, of desperately longing for friendship, Riley is astonished to be accepted and loved by the anarchists -- to come to love the anarchists in return. But when the anarchists reveal a plot to assassinate the authoritarian dictator of the country, Riley is forced to choose whether to support the plot -- to return to the capital and help the anarchists bomb the headquarters -- or to lose their newfound family forever.
