书籍简介

一本天才的图画小说（但有很多字），讲述了一个来自多塞特的年轻女子离开自己的生活，到伦敦与一个年长的有名艺术家在一起。它在关系、创造力和友谊（以及艺术世界）方面也很出色。

每隔一段时间，就会有一本书出现，它是如此明亮的喜悦，如此真实，如此美丽和动人。艾莉森就是这样一本书。我爱死它了。"——杰西-伯顿，《微型作家》的作者

Alison是Posy Simmonds与Edward Bawden的结合--真的，还能有什么更高的评价呢？——观察家报

微妙而美味的复杂，这是一本关于大主题的大书，但做得很轻松、很优雅。我喜欢它'。——泰莎-哈德利，《自由之爱》的作者

艾莉森刚刚结婚，不到20岁，正在努力寻找她在这个世界上的位置。一次偶然的机会，她与一位年长的艺术家相遇，改变了她的生活，她放弃了传统和她在多塞特的工人阶级的根源，来到了七十年代末伦敦的艺术界。

当波西米亚式浪漫的刺激不可避免地导致失望时，艾莉森开始通过艺术、友谊和爱情找到自己的道路。

这本书是对选择自己生活的权利的证明。

一幅80年代和90年代伦敦的美味画卷，也是一个更普遍的故事，一个工人阶级的年轻女性在一个并不为她这样的人设计的世界里创造生活。尽管它不费吹灰之力[......]艾莉森Z终还是承载了巨大的情感重量。这是一本可爱的书，我在Z后哭了。——卫报

A genius graphic novel (but lots of words) about a young woman from Dorset who leaves her life to be with a much older famous artist in London. It's also brilliant on relationships, creativity and friendship (and the art world)' India Knight

'Every now and again a book comes along that is such a bright joy, so true, so beautiful and moving. Alison is one of those books. I loved it' Jessie Burton, author of The Miniaturist

'Alison is Posy Simmonds meets Edward Bawden - and really, what higher praise could there be?' Observer

'Subtle and deliciously complicated, this is a big book on big subjects, but lightly, elegantly done. I loved it' Tessa Hadley, author of Free Love

Alison is newly married, barely twenty and struggling to find her place in the world. A chance encounter with an older artist upturns her life and she forsakes convention and her working-class Dorset roots for the thrumming art scene of London in the late seventies.

As the thrill of bohemian romance leads inevitably to disappointment, Alison begins to find her own path - through art, friendship and love.

'This book is a testament to the right to choose your own life' Jessica Andrews, author of Saltwater

'A delicious portrait of 80s and 90s London and a more universal tale of a working-class young woman making a life in a world that has not been designed for the likes of her. For all its effortlessness [...] Alison ends up carrying a great emotional heft. It's a lovely book, and I cried at the end.' Guardian
