Why We Broke Up
Why We Broke Up

Heartache cataloged through sentimental tokens.

If you've ever sifted through the physical remnants of a past relationship, this book might just resonate with you. Daniel Handler, with a keen eye for the emotional weight of objects, invites you into Min's world of youthful love and loss. It's raw, relatable, and a beautifully illustrated journey through the artifacts of a broken relationship, each with its own story and significance.

Description

I'm telling you why we broke up, Ed. I'm writing it in this letter, the whole truth of why it happened. Min Green and Ed Slaterton are breaking up, so Min is writing Ed a letter and giving him a box. Inside the box is why they broke up. Two bottle caps, a movie ticket, a folded note, a box of matches, a protractor, books, a toy truck, a pair of ugly earrings, a comb from a motel room, and every other item collected over the course of a giddy, intimate, heartbreaking relationship. Item after item is illustrated and accounted for, and then the box, like a girlfriend, will be dumped.
