Synopsis "Apsara Engine (in English)"
Winner of the 2020 Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Graphic Novel/Comics Winner of the 2021 Lambda Literary Award for LGBTQ Comics Finalist for the 2021 Ferro-Grumley Literary Award for LGBTQ Fiction The eight delightfully eerie stories in Apsara Engine are a subtle intervention into everyday reality. A woman drowns herself in a past affair, a tourist chases another guest into an unforeseen past, and a nonbinary academic researches postcolonial cartography. Imagining diverse futures and rewriting old mythologies, these comics delve into strange architectures, fetishism, and heartbreak. Painted in rich, sepia-toned watercolors, Apsara Engine is Bishakh Som's highly anticipated debut work of fiction. Showcasing a series of fraught, darkly humorous, and seemingly alien worlds--which ring all too familiar--Som captures the weight of twenty-first-century life as we hurl ourselves forward into the unknown. An astonishing collection of stories that expand and pulse into galaxy-sized moments of strangeness and wonder. --Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble "Som has created a collection of short stories that dance between genres and identities, moving from incisive descriptions of modern social realities to poetic ruminations on the future. This anthology by an up-and-coming comics superstar, which centers queer and trans South Asian narratives, is precisely what we need right now." --Them
