From
an artist whose work has
appeared in more than 100 television commercials, films, and music
videos, NARCISSA is Lance Tooks’ beautifully drawn, compelling
story of one woman’s journey to self-discovery.
NARCISSA,
a talented and self-centered
independent filmmaker, is collapsing under the strain of her critics—the
“enlightened” people who are trying to get her to compromise her
integrity. The stress is killing her—literally. Warned that if
she tries to complete her current project she’ll be dead in a
week, Narcissa decides to escape the chaos that surrounds her-and
the fears that threaten to overwhelm her—by traveling to Spain.
As she encounters new people, places, and experiences, Narcissa
gradually comes to a deeper understanding of who she is and what
she is doing with her life.
Depicting
Narcissa’s journey
with
compassion and wit,
LANCE TOOKS has created an episodic, thoroughly engrossing,
existential tale that will long resonate with readers.
Lance
Tooks
lives in New York and Madrid. He merely exists
everywhere else.
