Valerie spends all her time daydreaming about her exes playing together in a jazz band. As I dislike most jazz and hate dream sequences, I was pretty sure this book wasn't going to go well for me. As it progresses, Valeries reflects on her relationships with the men one by one, showing us that they were pretty uniformly stupid and/or awful and certainly not worth a second thought once dumped. As I reflected on Valerie, I realized she was no catch herself and certainly not worth much thought on my part. So, so, so not for me. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
British comedy blended with universal regret, this darkly funny graphic novel uses surreal and beautiful visions to explore the ways we remain haunted by our ex-lovers. Valerie has a rich interior life. Serially unlucky in love, to feel better she imagines that her previous boyfriends are dead and that their bodies are kept downstairs in the cellar in a strange, mummified state. Every day she brings them upstairs and speaks with them about what went wrong. What follows is a series of peculiar and funny, and sometimes disturbing short tales about inept lovers, weird obsessions, and socially malfunctioning men who repeatedly fail to build a relationship with poor Valerie. Apart from Stanley. Stanley was special. Could he be the one to save her? The Three Rooms in Valerie's Headis a dark comedy about relationships, memory, loneliness and obsession and is the first collaboration between ultra-short fiction writer David Gaffney and comic artist Dan Berry.
