Introducing a bold new voice - one of the most exciting short-story writers working in comics today.

A coworker-turned-prospective-lover confesses a hard-to-swallow fetish. A train ride fantastically goes off the rails. Cousins revisit summer holiday bliss - or was it really horror? Exes fumble an attempt to reconnect over a dip in the pool. And an expectant mother slips into uncharted territory as she enters a communion more pure than language can accommodate.

I Ate the Whole World to Find You maps the topography of trauma, treasures, and loss imposed onto the body of Jenny, a twenty-something-going-on-thirty-something partial hot mess who's making her way more firmly into adulthood. As she navigates friendship, family, and romantic relationships, will her inability to communicate destroy her, or ultimately be her rebirth?

Set against an exquisitely lush Australian backdrop, Rachel Ang's pencils are fluid yet scratchy, precise and evocative, bringing to life the inner and external world of Jenny with stunning realism and gushing imagination. Sprinkled with speculative fiction and fantasy, this radiant debut collection establishes Ang as a storyteller of range and power.

'Here are stories of the body's darkest moments and profoundest ecstasies, bound up in a lush, strange, genre-defying collection. I adored this book.' -Carmen Maria Machado, author of In the Dream House

'Rachel Ang's I Ate the Whole World to Find You combines my two favourite flavours- strange and evocative. They draw a beautifully reverberating world that transcends language so that we can see the splendour of it all anew. This collection is a hallucination, a holy text, an experience to return to again and again.' -Rachel Yoder, author of Nightbitch

'I devoured this book in one voracious go. It was explosive, blunt, biting, beautiful, and at times awful in the way those we most love can be. The characters are hard on themselves and soft on others, or tender on the inside and hard outside. Ang's bold and brave illustrations are so expressive, their bodies so corporeal, their faces so full of inner feeling. And they're so funny! I've never read a graphic novel quite like this one.' -Alice Pung, author of One Hundred Days
