Summary

Set during the malaise-filled months following high-school graduation, GHOST WORLD follows the proud misfit Enid, who confronts an uncertain future amid the cultural wasteland of consumerist America. As her cynicism becomes too much to bear even for her best friend, Rebecca, Enid finds herself drawn to an unlikely kindred spirit: a sad-sack record collector many years her senior.
