An international collaboration involving 26 writers and illustrators from 14 different countries have transformed 15 of Cixin Liu´s - ´China´s answer to Arthur C. Clarke´ (New Yorker) - award-winning stories into graphic novels.
Yuanyuan was five months old when she saw bubbles for the first time. In that moment, her eyes lit up with a radiance that outshone the sun and stars, and she felt she truly saw the world for the first time. From that day on, her life´s one dream was to blow the biggest bubbles possible.
Yuanyuan´s father doesn´t approve of her dream. He fears his daughter´s obsession is childish and too fleeting for his daughter, and longs for her to turn her intelligence to a calling that might help people. Their city is dying, but Yuanyuan focuses solely on blowing bigger and bigger bubbles.
But when Yuanyuan learns to create a bubble the size of a city - greater even - it may be that her obsession isn´t so unhelpful after all.
