Tentacles at My Throat is a captivating coming-of-age story that unfolds across three distinct phases of Zerocalcare's life: primary school, junior high, and his adult years. It is a complete narrative presented in three parts, each sharing a common theme of an unsettling sensation of having tentacles at one's throat. These three moments are interconnected by the bond of three friends, their school grounds, and a secret that unfolds over fifteen years.
Fifteen years later, the revelation emerges that the group believed there was only one secret, but in reality, each individual harbored their own. Furthermore, there existed a greater secret, one that none of them were aware of.
This remarkable work by Zerocalcare marks his second graphic novel, showcasing his exceptional talent as a narrator, adept at portraying his own weaknesses with intelligence, delicacy, and merciless honesty. These weaknesses, which could be perceived as universal, resonate with readers on a profound level.
An honest, touching, and intensely emotional story, Tentacles at My Throat blends elements of Stand by Me for a touch of nostalgia. It is the book that propelled Zerocalcare to national success in Italy in 2012, with nineteen reprints since its initial release, surpassing the 120,000 copies sold mark.
In addition to the success of the book, Zerocalcare's original animated series, "Tear Along the Dotted Line," made its debut on Netflix WORLDWIDE on November 17, 2021. Season Two is currently in production, eagerly awaited by fans worldwide.
