Shifting between the everyday and the surreal, A City Inside recounts one woman's life, starting from her childhood home, to the first love that she will never forget, to the creation of the idea of herself that she can grow old with and the home that she can grow old in. Tillie Walden creates a poetic graphic novel exploration of the process of growing older; the journey towards finding out who you are and building a life for yourself.

Lyrical exploration of a woman's journey through life.
