description: Fantagraphics is proud to publish this first-ever hardcover edition of TEotFW in conjunction with the 2017 television drama on UKs Channel 4 (with distribution via U.S. streaming to follow soon thereafter). Originally released to critical and public acclaim in 2013 Charles Forsmans graphic novel debut follows James and Alyssa two teenagers living a seemingly typical teen experience as they face the fear of coming adulthood. Forsman tells their story through each characters perspective jumping between points of view with each chapter. But quickly this somewhat familiar teenage experience takes a more nihilistic turn as Jamess character exhibits a rapidly forming sociopathy that threatens both of their futures. He harbors violent fantasies and begins to act on them while Alyssa remains as willfully ignorant for as long as she can blinded by young love.
