Blindfolded and combing the past hand-in-hand, two sisters revisit their childhood and a forgotten pain in Darkroom. The demands of anxiety pin one woman against societal expectations and a conniving enemy in SAD Face. Both stories are included in the signed, limited edition hardcover coming July ninth.
