He hires a model, Tina, to pose for a series of paintings he dubs \"The Eroticism of Homeliness.\" Over time, their relationship evolves from a tenuous working relationship to a confused sexual entanglement. Martin's initial repulsion for Tina slowly turns to attraction, causing him to re-evaluate his own notions of beauty and sexuality. Tina's motives in working for Martin are slowly turned upside-down as well, leading toward the book's inevitable, explosive ending. Sad, funny, and often uncomfortably titillating, \u003cem\u003eRipple\u003c\/em\u003e is rendered with kinetic realism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dave Cooper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1683960262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781683960263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fantagraphics Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.50h x 9.70w x 0.70d","brand":"Dave Cooper","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43937278689535,"sku":"9781683960263","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c2ff0060-3224-4fb1-8732-a9c038f7a7d1.jpg?v=1681429134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ripple-dave-cooper-9781683960263","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
