Maverick Announces In Mourning

For fans of I’m A Mess and those struggling with loss, this moving graphic novel uncovers one young woman’s journey with the loss of her mother.

When someone dies, there’s a void — a loss. No matter what. There’s a whirlwind of feelings and confusion. We don’t know what happens to the dead after death, but we do know what happens to the living. Paula beautifully narrates the loss of her mother and how she copes with the sudden loss in this charming and moving graphic novel.

Maverick’s senior editor Lauren Hitzhusen, said, “In Mourning is an incredibly touching book about the nuances and the depth of loss. Death is part of life, but how we engage with death and how it feels to lose someone is a completely unique and individual experience that can last for years. Paula’s story of dealing with her own mother’s passing is something that readers will find relatable and moving and we’re proud to bring it into the Maverick line.”
