Description

A must-have collector's edition of Junot D az's bestseller and National Book Award finalist, brilliantly illustrated by celebrated comic artist Jaime Hernandez


 


A major New York Times bestseller and a finalist for the National Book Award, This Is How You Lose Her is Pulitzer Prize-winner Junot D az's celebration of love in all its facets--obsessive love, illicit love, fading love, maternal love. For this gorgeous new edition, Jaime Hernandez--deemed "one of the twentieth century's most significant comic creators"--has crafted stunning full-page illustrations, one for each story, that brilliantly capture the love-haunted spirit of the book and of the gutsy women whom irrepressible, irresistible Yunior loves and loses. A true work of art, inside and out, this is a keepsake that fans will treasure and new readers will delight in discovering.
