Nymph – Leila Marzocchi

A lone, defenseless pupa has rained down from the sky. An assembly of talking birds and trees agree to protect ''Dolly'' as it begins to evolve – but into what? As the humanoid creature starts showing a predilection for flight and music, magical clues start unveiling themselves. Italian award-winning cartoonist Leila Marzocchi''s terrifically lush scratchboard drawings are a perfect companion to her witty dialogue and profound storytelling. Nymph gets to the heart of both human and Mother Nature to prove that, to raise a child-like larva, it takes a village. Or at least a forest.
