Ware said he proposed a similar boxed project to Eclipse Comics in 1987, though it was turned down, and had done some smaller-scale single-edition boxed projects while in art school. The parts of the work can be read in any order. It mainly focuses on her time in a three-story brownstone apartment building in Chicago, but also follows her later in her life as a mother. The intricate, multilayered stories pivot around an unnamed female protagonist with a missing lower leg. The work took a decade to complete, and was published by Pantheon Books. The unconventional work is made up of fourteen printed works-cloth-bound books, newspapers, broadsheets and flip books-packaged in a boxed set.
