Soft

Laura Leiha Deng befriends a mysterious and beautiful girl with sharp teeth named Carmilla, and slowly, something soft, delicate and rotten like white mold blooms between them.

A retelling of Carmilla, one of the the earliest pieces vampire literature ever written.

The director’s cut has an extended runtime of 114 pages (almost 30 more pages than the original book), with new art, previously deleted scenes, and refreshed dialogue. The first printing of soft was one of our final few Risograph books, and had the highest page count for a single book. It really pushed the limits of what we were able to bind, and would have been an extremely difficult book to reprint. Because of those production reasons, the book was not reprinted for many years, despite many people asking for it, and that is one of the authors favorites among their works. Now, 10-ish years later, we are very happy to have the chance to bring it back. We hope you like it too!
