Sales and Market Bullets
CHINATOWNS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD: Christina and Daniel live in Toronto’s Chinatown–Kensington Market and capture the atmosphere of the neighborhood. Before beginning the project in 2017, they’ve witnessed a lot of changes in the neighborhood — both good and bad — and gentrification is a major theme of the book. This book will resonate with anyone who knows and loves any of the Chinatowns around the continent, including those in Vancouver, Montreal, San Francisco, and New York City.
TIMELY THEMES: Covers grief, immigrant narratives, racism, gentrification, and ageism.
FOR READERS OF: Other graphic novels such as Shadow Life (Hiromi Goto/Ann Xu), In-Between Days (Teva Harrison), or American Born Chinese (Gene Luen Yang).
EARLY PREVIEWS: Previews of the artwork and words can be found on Denison Avenue’s Instagram account, @denisonavenue.
