Get ready to dive into the captivating world of Monty, a comic-shop owner who is about to have his world turned upside down by his Asian mail-order bride, Kyung Soo. In this gripping and emotional graphic novel by the talented Disney animator Mark Kalesniko, we follow Monty's journey as he navigates the complexities of his relationship with Kyung.
Monty, a Canadian comic-and-toy-shop owner, is a 39-year-old virgin who has high expectations for his mail-order bride. He envisions Kyung as fitting into his stereotypical fantasy of an obedient, hardworking, and loyal Asian woman. However, Kyung is anything but what Monty expects. Tall and accentless, she challenges Monty's preconceived notions and forces him to confront his own biases.
Through 264 elegant and touching pages, Kalesniko expertly weaves a story that delves into themes of loneliness, consumerism, and the complexities of human relationships. Monty's struggles with his own obsessions and objectification of Kyung are laid bare, highlighting the ways in which the need for order in one's life can impact matters of the heart.
Join Monty and Kyung on their journey of self-discovery and growth in this powerful graphic novel that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Don't miss out on this thought-provoking and emotionally resonant tale that is sure to captivate readers of all backgrounds.
