#1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Where is Lee Harvey Oswald’s body? The Kennedy assassination is a rat’s nest of conspiracy theories: mafia involvement, the second gunman, government cover-up... but the most important chapter of this sordid tale may just be the theory that the body buried at Oswald’s Rose Hill gravesite is not actually Lee Harvey himself. Meet the ragtag group of “useful idiots” who are unwittingly brought together to clean up the crime of the century – a wannabe cowboy from Wisconsin, a Buddy Holly-idolizing (former) car thief, a world-weary Civil Rights activist ready for revolution, and a failed G-Man who still acts the part – and specifically, regarding the matter of Oswald’s body.
Dora, a detective traumatized by the same recent supernatural events as Ellie, is suspicious of the untimely death of Alfie–a man who helped her in desperate times. As new terrors unfold, the two witness strange changes to the political landscape of Britain: a gibbering madness infecting the population. Ellie fears the worst, and seeks the only thing she thinks can help. A demon may be behind what’s happened, one that predates even the Ars Goetia... and isn’t so easy to control...
On board the interplanetary ark Dodona, life is strictly regimented and controlled, functioning according to the edicts put in place hundreds of years ago. But when a pilot named Revla falls through the vents and out of her privileged life landing deep within the belly of the ship’s inner workings, she meets an algae tank worker named Les, and everything about their society is called into question. In this multi-generational science fiction epic, each chapter tells a new story of love and rebellion at a pivotal moment in the history of humanity’s greatest adventure. Across the centuries, different factions rise and fall, political movements gain and lose power, and society changes both for the better and the worse, all within the microcosm of the spaceship Dodona. The only constants: hope for the future and the persistence of the human heart. Hugo and Eisner-nominated writer Corinna Bechko (Star Wars Legacy, The Expanse) and artist Danny Luckert (The Red Mother, Haunted) explore love throughout time and across space along the Dodona’s long journey home. Collects The Space Between #1-4.
