Jon McNaught is a Ignatz-nominated cartoonist and printmaker living in Bristol. He also works as a printmaking instructor at the University of the West of England. He has produced comic strips for Nobrow, Art Review and Stripburger, among others. His first book Birchfield Close was published in 2010 by Nobrow Press, followed shortly by Pebble Island, both received wide critical acclaim and have earned him plaudits from some of the world’s foremost cartoonists.
“There are few younger comics artists with whom I feel a genuine aesthetic kinship, but the radiant and glowing Dockwood is Jon McNaught’s loveliest argument yet for the beauty of just being alive. It’s a gem.” Chris Ware, author of Jimmy Corrigan and Building Stories.
Dockwood is a small town in South East England, population 26,000. It is home to a bowling alley, a boating lake and Willowbrook Outlet Village.
It’s a cloudy Tuesday in October and the residents of the town are going about their business as usual. In Elmsview Nursing Home, a kitchen porter dutifully prepares lunch for residents. Elsewhere, a council worker sweeps the fallen leaves from the pavements. Along Nettlefield Road, a paperboy is delivering his daily round. And in the trees, swallows gather noisily in preparation for their annual migration.
In this new work, Jon McNaught weaves together the everyday lives of three locals against an evocative backdrop of autumnal transitions. Bittersweet and contemplative, Dockwood is for anyone who believes the stories that take place within life’s small moments can often be the most meaningful of all.

喜歡遊戲那一段,這是一本有聲音的書
评分色調!連續!棒!
评分Bookoff淘的二手書,但是跟新的一樣。這本書細節做得超好,通過環境(周遭)的變化,來錶達人的感情,總之把握得很妙。但整本書讀完就是很緻鬱。兩個鞦天的簡單小故事,比較喜歡第一個故事在老人院裏麵一段對話,“你知道m先生死瞭嗎?”“誰?”“12號房的。”“哦我挺喜歡他的。”以及第二個故事“how is your school?""fine."這段的畫

评分托白菜的福,欣賞瞭這位非常有風格的作者的作品,色塊的冷暖,人間的清冷。
