by Zviane (Author), Helge Dascher (Translator)
An intimate, beautiful, and heart-wrenching portrait of love, lust, and creativity from one of the world's most innovative graphic novel creators.
A pair of musicians elope to an isolated modernist house in the woods for a romantic weekend together, knowing they'll soon have to go back to their respective lives away from each other. But for the moment, it's as if time itself had been suspended, as if nothing exists, save for the words of love they whisper to each other and the taste of dry sweat on skin. But something lurks right underneath the surface, in the nameless gap between passion and reason. An atmospheric, introspective look at modern love, sex, and music, For As Long As It Rains is the winner of multiple awards, including the prestigious Joe Shuster Award.Author Biography

A prolific author, she is the creator of For As Long As It Rains, Going Under, Zviane au Japon, Football-Fantasie, and many other award-winning books. Her comics career is in danger of being sidetracked by her growing interest in film. She currently lives in Montréal.
