Graphic novels

A poignant graphic novel about love, identity, and the challenges of adulthood.

In the final volume of The Story of Lee, Lee and Matt continue their studies and relationship in the UK. Lee's growing confidence leads her to assert herself more, challenging Matt to change or risk upsetting their relationship. A Chinese student becomes a rival for Lee's attention, while Matt faces financial and existential struggles. Against the backdrop of increasing societal turmoil in Hong Kong, Lee's father falls ill, forcing her to decide whether to return home or pursue an independent life in the UK. This graphic novel explores themes of cross-cultural relationships, identity, and the complexities of family obligations. Perfect for readers interested in slice-of-life stories and character-driven narratives.
