Why read it?
1 author picked Capacity as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
There is nothing remotely like this comic series; it's one of the most original, surreal, and fantastical things I have ever read! When I spend time with this artist's work, I feel like a portal opens in my mind and enters a space of pure, unbridled imagination.
This book puts me in touch with the mysteries of human consciousness and the potential of endless dimensions and dream worlds enveloped within otherwise normal daily life.
From Misha's list on connection with the mysterious wonders of life.
