Shortcomings

Item # 159753.

By Adrian Tomine.

Adrian Tomine’s beloved New York Times Notable graphic novel has been adapted into a major motion picture. 

Ben Tanaka has problems. In addition to  being rampantly critical, sarcastic, and insensitive, his long–term relationship is awash in turmoil. His girlfriend, Miko Hayashi, suspects  that Ben has a wandering eye, and more to the point, it’s wandering in  the direction of white women. This accusation (and its various  implications) becomes the subject of heated, spiraling debate, setting  in motion a story that pits California against New York, devotion  against desire, and trust against truth. 

Paper: 107 pp.
