![]() On the other hand, Shadow's nemesis is a matter of self doubt. They love one another, they love her, they just can't always be around one another. I love how Crowley portrays them in this book, because it is so realistic. For Lucy, her parents are the source of her confusion. This is a story about feeling lost and alone, and searching out the one thing that will bring you back. ![]() Crowley allows her characters to use art in general as an outlet for their emotions. In this book, graffiti is turned into an expression of feeling. Shadow doesn't paint on anything that belongs to anyone, he doesn't tag for a gang, instead he paints the beauty, pain and sorrow that are inside of his soul onto the walls of broken down areas. ![]() Before I delve into anything else about this book I need to share how much I loved that Cath Crowley made graffiti into art. After reading Graffiti Moon, I think my love is even stronger. There's something about the sweeping murals, painted in secrecy, that hold a certain power over me. ![]()
