Bron and Ray are a queer couple who enjoy their role as the fun weirdo aunties to Ray’s niece, six-year-old Nessie. Their playdates are little oases of wildness, joy, and ease in all three of their lives, which ping-pong between familial tensions and deep-seeded personal stumbling blocks. As their emotional intimacy erodes, Ray and Bron isolate from each other and attempt to repair their broken family ties ― Ray with her overworked, resentful single-mother sister and Bron with her religious teenage sister who doesn’t fully grasp the complexities of gender identity. Taking a leap of faith, each opens up and learns they have more in common with their siblings than they ever knew. At turns joyful and heartbreaking, Stone Fruit reveals through intimately naturalistic dialog and blue-hued watercolor how painful it can be to truly become vulnerable to your loved ones ― and how fulfilling it is to be finally understood for who you are. Lee Lai is one of the most exciting new voices to break into the comics medium and she has created one of the truly sophisticated graphic novel debuts in recent memory.

Stone Fruit

Ganhador de dois Ignatz, do ALA Stonewall Award Honor e do Cartoonist Studio Prize. Finalista do L.A. Times Book Prize. Bron e Ray são um casal queer, ligado por um amor poderoso, que tudo consome. Suas aventuras selvagens com Nessie, sobrinha de Ray, são momentos de felicidade que elas esperam todas as semanas. Movidas pelo poder da imaginação da criança, elas podem ser elas mesmas e esquecer suas vidas cotidianas, presas entre tensões familiares, rejeição e isolamento. Mas com os velhos demônios de Bron ressurgindo e o relacionamento murchando, as duas jovens tentam resgatar laços familiares um tanto desgastados – Ray com sua irmã sobrecarregada, mãe solo da pequena Nessie; e Bron com sua irmã adolescente, vinda de um ambiente religioso e incapaz de compreender as complexidades de sua identidade de gênero. Conseguirão deixar de lado o ressentimento e encontrar o caminho da reconciliação? Nectarina é uma comovente história de amor, uma ode à tolerância e ao vínculo fraterno.
