Description

As sixteen-year-old Ria sets out to prove her missing grandfather's wild theories about the flying jellyfish of local lore, she discovers that reality can be far stranger—and more dangerous—than anything she imagined. This eerily beautiful and distinctive graphic novel from an award-winning creator is for fans of Lee Knox Ostertag, E. M. Carroll, and Tillie Walden.

A year ago, Ria’s whole life changed. Her grandfather—a noted marine biologist—went missing, presumed dead, in Siren Cove. And her grandmother, who Ria rescued from the water, hasn't been the same since.

Most people in town avoid Siren Cove. They believe in the rumors about the flying jellyfish and the disappearances just enough to stay away. But Grandad was convinced those creatures held the key to curing his wife’s failing memory. Now it’s up to Ria to prove it, no matter what anyone else thinks. She’ll sneak out of the house, she’ll lie to her parents, she’ll pull away from her best friend, Mena. Whatever it takes.

But Mena’s not about to let Ria sacrifice her own life, her own happiness, chasing a myth. So she accompanies Ria on one last trip to the cove, to help her friend move on.

What they find is impossible. What they experience is indescribable. What they discover is that the bonds of friendship are the strongest on earth.

Kerilynn Wilson’s sophisticated, haunting artwork and nuanced characters tell a story of friendship, loss, and healing. You and I Are Earth is a striking, sometimes surreal graphic novel from an award-winning creator that will appeal to fans of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Black Mirror, and Stranger Things.

As sixteen-year-old Ria sets out to prove her missing grandfather's wild theories about the flying jellyfish of local lore, she discovers that reality can be far stranger—and more dangerous—than...
