An extraordinary, hallucinatory ride of a graphic novel about existing in an uncertain world; a visual tour de force by Greek artist Dimitris Anastasiou

A=-A is a beautiful, dark and surreal story, about a man called Alpha whose world is quite literally turned upside down for a day. As he wanders the streets of his hometown, reality flips on its axis, sending him and the reader on a wild and extraordinary journey.

This wholly immersive, escapist, psychedelic mystery centres around two profound philosophical questions- in a strange and unreliable world, can we be certain of anything? And if we stop craving certainty - and entertain doubt - what new possibilities become available to us?

'Gloriously odd, deeply moving . . . In short- a trip.' - Niall Griffiths, winner of the Wales Book of the Year 2020

Reviews for A = - A (A Equals Minus A) (GN)

Gloriously odd, disconcertingly oneiric, deeply moving, intellectually stimulating and consistently engaging. In short: a trip. -- Niall Griffiths
