Originally published by the
author in four volumes, "Fluffy" is described by Simone Lia as 'a story
of unanswerable questions, love, despair, adventure and happiness'. Fluffy is a
baby rabbit who is being looked after by an anxious, single man called Michael
Pulcino. Michael tries to make it clear to Fluffy that he is not his daddy, but
Fluffy appears to be in denial.
Michael is being pursued by
Fluffy's nursery school teacher, and partly to escape her, he and Fluffy set
off to visit his family in Sicily.
Will Michael escape her? Will Fluffy come to terms with the reality that he is
not a human being? All is at least partly resolved in Simone Lia's utterly
irresistible graphic novel.
