I Am Young is a series of short stories tied together by one central story about two teenagers who meet and fall in love after a Beatles concert in Scotland in 1964. This central story, titled ''Greyfriar''s Bobby,'' is told through the dual perspective of a girl named Miriam and a boy named George. Meeting so young, Miriam and George''s relationship is as emphatic and naive as their love for their favourite band during its rise to fame. I Am Young is ripe with ideas about how relationships evolve - both interpersonal relationships and our relationships with the culture around us.

Industry Reviews

[Dean's stories are] told through complex, experimental visuals that are unfailingly absorbing. ... This book about the past makes you wonder what its author will do next.-- "NPR Books"
A touching collection of stories that all readers will enjoy.-- "Adventures in Poor Taste"
Dean's beguiling art pulls the reader trippingly into a 1960s teen romance.-- "The Washington Post"
This stunning debut pulls off the rare feat of drawing about music with authenticity and charm.-- "Publishers Weekly"
While the focus of Dean's book might appear to be music, it's really identity. Music is the announcement of who we are, but Dean is just as committed to depicting what lies under the songs.-- "The Beat"
A thrilling, heart-swelling thing to read.--Matt Fraction
M. Dean has a voice and vision entirely, thrillingly her own.--Brian K. Vaughan
