An astonishing, high-adventure graphic novel that playfully remixes The Odyssey, Moby Dick, and more, from Norway's greatest cartoonist.
Fresh out of a job, with his apartment slated for demolition and his possessions seized, Mulysses is in need of $5,000--and fast! As luck would have it, he crosses paths just in time with a wealthy collector, who offers him the fortune he seeks if he succeeds in bringing back the world's biggest eye, fabled to grant its owner enormous power. Like Ulysses, Ishmael, and many others before him, Mulysses takes to the sea in search of both adventure and himself.
In addition to his high comedic, cartoonist talents, yvind Torseter is one of Norway's most acclaimed illustrators. This is his seventh book with Enchanted Lion.
Øyvind Torseter is a Norwegian artist and illustrator who has created eleven books on his own and several with other authors. He's received numerous awards for his books, including a Bologna Ragazzi Award and the Norwegian Book Art Prize. In 2014, he was a finalist for the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award. His books have been translated into several languages, with six already published by Enchanted Lion. He lives and works in Oslo.
