This is the semi-autobiographical novel by acclaimed cartoonish Gilbert Hernandez, co-creator if the 'Love and Rockets' comic book series. In his first book with Faber, Hernandez tells the untold stories of these American comics legends' youth and portrays the reality of life in a large family in suburban 1960s California. Told largely from the point of view of middle child Huey - who stages Captain America plays and treasures his older brother's comic book collection almost as much as his approval - 'Marble Season' deftly follows these boys as they navigate their cultural and neighbourhood norms.
