Breaker’s End

200-page graphic novel

Written and illustrated by Corban Wilkin

Self-published 2013

It's happening. They're selling off the forests.

In a little junkyard of a woodland called Breaker's End, a couple have been living for ten years with their tent and an abandoned piano.

Chloe sells decorated shells in the town for the things they need. She finds herself dreaming of a warm house and a soft bed more often these days, but they get by.

Now their grim little way of life is threatened, and as the net closes around them, can she really up sticks and move on after all this time? Go back to a world of roofs and central heating?

Maybe if she can wrench Isaac away from that damn piano and convince him that they need to move on. Maybe if she can somehow sell a hundred thousand sea-shells.

It’s surprising, touching and revealing about the sort of ‘invisible people’ who are mostly ignored by other media.
