Rodney spends his life looking through. Windows give way to screens as he comes to age dreaming of what lies beyond Earth's atmosphere...

This powerfully silent graphic novel by Tom Haugomat follows the saga of a boy who grows up to be an astronaut, just like he always wanted...until a fatal shuttle crash upends his life, and he begins to find solace in beauty here on earth. Told through a series of poignant vignettes, Through A Life is a sweeping story of dreams, expectations, nature, and loss.

Elegant, striking illustrations make for an engrossing and universally accessible story.

The main character's story feels all the more relatable as it interweaves with actual events in recent history.

Tom Haugomat is a well-established figure in the illustration world, with successful work in publishing, advertising, and editorial.
