The comics collected in Heads or Tails display a virtuosic breadth
of visual styles and color palettes, each in perfect service to the
story; they range from experimental one-pagers to masterpieces like
The Thing About Madeline (featured in The Best American Comics
2008), to novellas like The Carnival (featured in David Sedaris and
Dave Eggers 2010 Best American Nonrequired Reading). Carre s
elegant stories read like the gothic family narratives of Flannery
O Connor or Carson McCullers. Poetic rhythms a coin flip, a
circling Ferris wheel are punctuated by elements of melancholic
fantasy, and are pushed forward by character-driven, naturalistic
dialogue."
