Blue Sky Through the Window of a Moving Car
Powerful visual poetry from Instagram sensation, artist Jordan Bolton.
See the poetry in every day...
Jordan Bolton's Blue Sky Through the Window of a Moving Car is a poignant collection of comics that explore universal experiences and emotions through art and poetry. Small yet powerful, and equal parts heart-breaking and heart-warming, these poetic comics are intensely relatable and go straight to the heart of what it means to be human.
'The kind of book you want to pass around to all of your friends to make sure they've read it' - Jack Edwards
'Tremendous... Cinematic and poetic, it captures the heartbreak of everyday life' - Malaka Gharib
'Truthful observations of things and thoughts unsaid' - Matthew Johnstone
This first comic collection from artist Jordan Bolton explores the fleeting details that unite us. Jordan brings together the visual language of comics with the heartfelt language of poetry, to express moments of love and heartbreak, embarrassment and shame, hope and disappointment, grief and happiness.
Split into sections that reflect where we spend the majority of our time - In Public, In Transit, and At Home - Bolton shines spotlights on the lives and stories unfolding around us every day that we might otherwise ignore.
With the addition of new and unseen comics, Blue Sky Through the Window of a Moving Car is a gentle reminder that everything is ordinary, everything is extraordinary, and everything is connected.
