I think I could write 1000 words on this book, but why would you need to read it?

The Short While by Jeremy Sorese

January 4, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I do not remember when I first heard of The Short While by Jeremy Sorese, but I know I did not think it was going to be this odd, realistic, fantastical journey. I thought it was going to be a nice love story with ups and downs. It was going to be two gay men going through life and the trials gay men face. I misread the cover and thought they were camping in an odd cave. And it is that. And it is not […]

Community, Queer Romance, Near-Future SF….What More Could One Want?

The Short While by Jeremy Sorese

January 10, 2022 by GentleRain 4 Comments

This was a really nice surprise to read, as I had no real expectations going in besides being a follower of Jeremy Sorese’s illustrative work on Twitter. I knew he dealt with queer themes and I like his art style, so when I saw on Twitter that he’d done a graphic novel, I looked at the excerpt and decided to buy it. Pricey at US$30, but it is 432 pages and a mixture of illustration, comic panel style sections, and text, so you are getting […]
