I "read" this graphic novel back in July. Read in quotations because this book doesn't have any words or dialogues. But the monochromatic illustrations with a burst of color were able to show how two people longed for a connection, and how their paths intersected without them knowing. This was a perfect depiction of what we're looking for just passed by us a second ago without us realizing it, but there will be that opportunity, that chance that we will eventually find it... or not.
