FEELINGS

Manjit Thapp

A Story in Seasons

FEELINGS is a gorgeous visual journey, a graphic rendition of one young woman's year of emotions--from the saturated heat of high summer to the quiet greys of late winter.

Manjit Thapp's world explores moods that shift like the weather; the different shades of anxiety and hope that each new season brings; and the stages of joy and pain that fuel our growth. From the spark of creativity in summer, to the need for release from anxiety during Monsoon, and to the desolation of winter, the author invites us to consider the seasons of our own emotional journeys.

The author is an illustrator from the United Kingdom. She graduated with a BA in illustration from Camberwell College of Arts. Her illustrations combine traditional and digital media, and her work has been featured by Instagram, Dazed, Vogue India, and Wonderland Magazine, as well as google, Urban Outfitters, Apple, and more.

Manjit Thapp is a popular young illustrator with over 117,000 followers on Instagram. She also illustrated Random House's The Little Book of Feminist Saints (2018).

You should read Feelings: A Story in Seasons by Manjit Thapp. Traveling through the seasons, Thapp's art follows her own changing emotions and moods as they mirror the weather. It's a visually interesting and creative way of expressing how we as humans are really just sophisticated plants who need water, sunshine, and good soil to thrive.

Feelings filled me with a deep sense of nostalgia, warmth and comfort. Manjit Thapp's illustrations are breathtakingly beautiful. Every single panel is a masterpiece in its own right.

A beautifully illustrated, evocative look inside the emotions that live and take root inside us. Feelings is simply gorgeous - lush with Thapp's signature color palettes and evocatively profound, it fills the reader with a longing to climb inside each page and stay awhile. This book is a necessary reminder that the entire spectrum of emotion serves purpose, that each feeling is valuable, and most importantly, that we are not alone.

Thapp's project is a visual-emotional banquet in which to get both lost and found.

FEELINGS is included in Comic Beat's "Most Anticipated Graphic Novels of 2021!"

A colorfully heartfelt evocation of thought and emotion.

A very thoughtful and wildly beautiful book. Manjit Thapp's distinctive use of space and color exquisitely explores what it means to be a self, and the power of our feelings.

A visual and emotional treat, full of gorgeous artwork and soothing insight. Make some tea, curl up with this beautiful book, and let Manjit's warmth, sincerity, and intimacy wash over you. You'll understand yourself a bit better, and you'll feel like you've made an instant friend.

Feelings makes me feel unoriginal in the best way. It reminds me that despite the specific experience of my individual humanity, there's a shared one too, with the people around me, but also with the Earth. It's a colorful roadmap of how we all cycle through the seasons around us and inside of us, a constant oscillation between rain and sun and rage and relief. I'd gift this book to anyone and would be confident they would find themselves somewhere inside of it.
