Simon, a bookseller, has hit hard times. The financial crisis has
hit and sales have slumped; his store looks set to close, and he
has become increasingly withdrawn. Returning from his storeroom in
the woods, he stops at an isolated railroad crossing. There, he
witnesses a suicide. The moment hits him like a bomb. Withdrawing
deeper into himself, Simon is haunted by memories from his past -
memories repressed, from a time he'd prefer to forget. It is only
by chance that he meets Regina, a young girl who begins to provide
the comfort and support he needs. But who is Regina, and can she
help him come to terms with the loss of a childhood friend? A
beautifully drawn and impressively crafted debut from Aimee de
Jongh, The Return of the Honey Buzzard is a compelling, cinematic
and emotionally perceptive graphic novel about confronting the past
and starting again.
