Summary

When Kristen Radtke was in college, the sudden death of a beloved uncle and the sight of an abandoned mining town marked the beginning moments of a lifelong fascination with ruins and with people and places left behind. In this graphic memoir, she leads us through deserted towns in the American Midwest, Italian villas, islands in the Philippines, New York City, and the delicate passageways of the human heart, asking why are we here, and what will we leave behind?
