Description

A bear and chicken have darkly comic adventures in this Winnie the Pooh-for-adults-esque graphic novel.

Pluck, an irritable and featherless rooster, and his best pal, the awkward-but-lovable teddy bear known as Fuzz, met long ago in a garbage truck. A tenuous—if decidedly co-dependent—friendship followed, sending them on a series of not-so-heroic adventures. But now, we find them on a ramshackle barge, slowly drifting out to sea. How did they get there? How will they escape?

Stearn’s simply drawn cartoon protagonists move through a richly rendered world of dramatic mountains and ramshackle pirate ships cutting through stormy seas, in a bleakly funny parable as the opportunity of unlimited riches floats just beyond reach.
