Anneli Furmark

Anneli Furmark är en av de främsta serieberättarna i Sverige idag. På ett oemotståndligt sätt beskriver hon människor från helt skilda positioner; grabbar och tjejer, hetero eller homo. Hon är något så ovanligt som en mästare i både ord och bild. Det är som om hon skildrar hur själva det norrländska landskapet tänker och känner. Här har vi samlat elva av hennes starkaste serienoveller. De handlar om längtan att få älska någon, om att vara på väg att bli vuxen, om att pröva sina vingar och om att längta bort.

Anneli Furmark har ritat serier i snart tjugo år. Hon har givit ut två böcker tidigare och erhållit seriefrämjandets pris Urhunden för bästa svenska seriealbum 2005. Två gånger har hon prisbelönats vid den nordiska seriefestivalen i Kem
