Salmon Doubts

This graphic novel by Adam Sacks concerns a salmon named Geoff tormented by existential questions: why was he hatched? How can he overcome his shyness around the female salmon with whom he longs to spawn? Who are these self-appointed leaders of the group, and how is it that they have their power? Why must he swim upstream and face his doom? Geoff eventually finds his destiny by breaking away from the pack and heading out toward the open ocean, while his best friend, Henry, is content to continue upstream, spawn with his love-object, Samantha, and die.
