Paul Moves Out

Michel Rabagliati

Award-winning cartoonist Michel Rabagliati crafts stories that are easily accessible to both young-adult and adult audiences with his semi-fictional protagonist, Paul. This time Paul takes another step into adulthood by moving out of his parent’s house and into his first apartment with his girlfriend.

Set in Montreal, Paul Moves Out is a charming, thinly veiled memoir.

“Rabagliati’s confessional writing is free of self-loathing, and his black-and-white panels eschew half-tones for a spirited line that adeptly conveys the messiness and joy of youth.” —Ed Park, Village Voice

“Both funny and touching, Michel Rabagliati’s Paul Has a Summer Job has an authenticity sorely lacking in most forms of entertainment ... it reminds you of what you really enjoy literature for—the chance to connect to others and what’s real—and get away from superficiality and irony.”
—Time.com

Michel Rabagliati grew up in Quebec and worked as a graphic designer for 20 years before becoming a cartoonist at age 39. He lives in Montreal.
