She's lonely and searching for connection. He's lonely, but afraid to reach out. But is finding someone else really the answer to their problems? CRUSHING, an illustrated misadventure in love and loneliness, is a story told in silence - a story about connections in the big city - making them, missing them and longing for them. Small but meaningful moments of comfort and connection are celebrated through wordless, dreamlike illustrations, along with the bliss that comes from finally finding someone who truly understands you. Sometimes, words aren't enough.
