In this debut graphic novel, wildlife has been completely wiped out, fossil fuels have run dry, and corporations have colonized people’s lives ― but worst of all, Elizabeth and Carlos are bored!
Drawn in hazy gray pencil and printed in blue pantone ink, this book is about Elizabeth, an exotic dancer in cyberspace, and Carlos, who was just fired from the last human-staffed oil rig, attempting to keep their romance alive. When they realize that their bodies are full of artificial organs and they live almost entirely online, they begin to question what being human actually means. Do our ancestral, or even animal, instincts eventually kick in, or are we transcending the limits of our bodies? Inés Estrada’s debut graphic novel introduces us to a powerfully exquisite and chilling near future that doesn’t seem too far-fetched, where virtual reality affects our diets, sex lives, and nightly dreams. One color illustrations throughout.

Reviews for Alienation (GN)

Her illustrations are tough, sexy, and hilarious. What makes Estrada's work so good has to do with the passion and enjoyment that is imbued in it. And her coloring is out of this world -- humming with life.
