Marrow & Other Stories is a graphic novel by Sloane Hong, published by Āporo Press on the 27th of May 2024.[1]
Marrow & Other Stories brings together a collection of short comics by Sloane Hong into print for the first time. Although varied in content, each story explores how we relate to each other and the world around us—through grief, love and our innate curiosity of the unknown.[2][3]
Plagued with intrigue and often unsettling, these gloriously stylish panels peel back layers of the human psyche, exposing them, throbbing and pulsating, for all to see. [2][3]
