When a riverboat captain rescues an injured mermaid from the waters of the busiest port in the United States, he unleashes a calamity that only true love—if such a thing is possible—could avert. A mysterious and beguiling love story with elements of Poe, Twain, Hemingway, and Greek mythology, Sailor Twain is a study in romance, atmosphere, and suspense.
In this brand new edition, Sailor Twain is printed larger than ever before, showcasing the charcoal artwork in all its glory. It also includes a ton of new backmatter, such as an author’s note about the inspiration behind the story, an insider's look at Mark Siegel's unique and painstaking creative process, and never-before-seen tribute art from beloved comic artists like Ben Hatke and Vera Brosgol.
