Description

The beloved character of Fluffy is back after nearly two decades, in Simone Lia's utterly disarming graphic novel Fluffy Pulcino is nearly all grown up. Nearly. But life in your early twenties can be complicated enough without the added quirk of being a bunny trying to function in a human world. No longer in denial about who he is, Fluffy sets out on the difficult task of finding his place in the world. His attempts at writing a self-help book lead him to reflect on a life plagued by failure - and by having to dodge people who just want to pick him up and stroke his ears. Fluffy's coming of age is drawn with a heartbreaking veracity that hits its mark when the overtly sweet and fantastical meets with an unswerving ability to voice our darker, more painful truths. How to Make Life Better When It Feels Like it's Getting Worse is a buoyant return to a beloved character. Through the unlikely avatar of a small, fluffy bunny and gloriously irreverent storytelling, Simone Lia shows what it means to grow into adulthood, find purpose and live in this world.
