Solicitation:
In this heartwarming graphic novel romance from the adaptor and illustrator of The Handmaid's Tale: The Graphic Novel, two young artists' paths intertwine as they navigate the complexities of love in a world where sea levels have risen and society is sharply divided. Paolo lives in the Flats, a dangerous, water-logged community where families survive by salvaging materials from skyscrapers hidden just beneath the ocean's surface-remnants of a world before sea levels rose. Scavenging the depths comes with its risks, but when Paolo discovers a suitcase of designer clothes, he decides to fulfill his dream: To spend one night in the Uplands, a place of privilege, excess, and freedom. There he meets Jules and her friends, and what begins as a single night of reckless adventure turns into a secret double life-and a seemingly impossible romance that forces Paolo to reckon with who he is, where he belongs, and the importance of being true to himself. Rendered in vibrant watercolor illustrations that bring every scene to vivid life, Salvage is as much a visual masterpiece as it is a moving tale of love and self-discovery. Renée Nault's atmospheric and luminous hand-painted art draws readers into Paolo and Jules' world, promising an unforgettable coming of age story.
