12 Days
12 Days is a dramatic Original English language manga by June Kim which details twelves days of the life of a woman dealing with grief over the loss of her lover. The manga has been published in the United States by Tokyopop. The graphic novel is a departure from the usual format of Tokyopop's global manga in that it is a stand alone volume and contains more mature subject matter, the loss of Jackie's lesbian lover and how she subsequently deals with that loss.
Plot[edit]
