Product Description

Product Description

Rob Grafton and Louise Bright are in love and engaged to be married. When they unexpectedly find themselves unemployed, marriage plans are derailed and they are forced to rethink the direction of their lives. While Louise turns to school, Rob maintains a staunch desire to regain his old job, but when the company is itself shut down and hope is lost, Rob's depression not only keeps him from finding another job, but ends up repelling Louise, as well. Set in contemporary England, Breakfast After Noon is a unique comic-book treat, choosing to focus on the twists and turns of real life rather than convoluted plots or the smoke-and-mirrors of the fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Romantic comedy set in the English midlands., 7 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Rob and Louise are a fairly typical English couple, living together, making plans for their wedding, when one day, without warning, they are both laid off from their jobs at the potteries. Lousie takes this as a blessing, using the opportunity to return to her education and learn a new trade, while Rob finds it a lot harder to let go. Rob has worked in the assembly depatment of the potteries since leaving school, and he cannot find the motivation to look for work in a new trade. So he signs on the doll.

With too much spare time on his hands and not enough money to make ends meet, tensions rise between the couple and their marriage plans are threatened. Rob's mates begin to get fed up with him scrounging pints off them at the pub, and eventually sever ties with him.

This is Andi Watson's strongest work to date, the characters are instantly recognisable and likeable. This a touching, funny and uplifting work of graphic fiction, focusing on the ups and downs of everyday life, and is a good example of the diversity of genre currently available in the comics medium. Watson's linework and dialogue are excellent - this is a really compelling read.
