Who isn’t feeling some ennui about the present moment? Olivia Sullivan’s Oracles starts out living in that very moment — and then takes us through the process of giving it all up in a meditative exploration of the nature all around us.
When the everyday becomes overwhelming, our protagonist begins to travel through the world to find wonder and a true escape. As they navigate through the forest, the ocean, the desert, and the mountains in a trip of peace, turmoil and reflection, the narrator encounters mushrooms, sage creatures, whirlpools, and learns more about themselves in the process. With gorgeous art and lyrical, contemplative text, this graphic novel is a passage from uncertainty to joy and understanding.
Oracles is available for pre-order on Kickstarter.
