A lonely swan travels cross-country to attend a gathering of like-minded birds. Is what she expects what she wants, and how far will she go to find out? Exploring the world of internet friendships, desire and the space between want and need, Star of Swan is a beguiling, thrilling new comic that readers will find hard to put down or forget.
Engaging with the post-lockdown world of parasocial relationships and long-distance fandoms, Star of Swan is a vital work of the moment, and cements Ferrick’s place as one of the most important chroniclers of the modern condition.
