Emily White: At a Friend's House, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Emily White transforms moments of attraction into vivid visual narratives, where laughter, music, and dimly lit rooms become the stage for slowly awakening desire. Her manga-style illustrations capture every glance and hesitation, building tension with the elegance of a perfectly framed scene. In the title story, two couples meet at a lively villa party, the air filled with clinking glasses and soft music. What begins as casual conversation gradually becomes a subtle dance of curiosity: a lingering handshake, a playful whisper, a look that lasts a heartbeat too long.

As the music shifts and partners change on the dance floor, bodies move closer than expected. "Her hand rested lightly on his chest, and for a moment the rhythm of the music seemed to disappear beneath the rhythm of their breathing." Beneath the polite smiles and sparkling lights, a quiet question begins to form. Some nights are remembered not for what happened-but for what almost did.
