Bryan Talbot and the locations of One Bad Rat

The Lake District is Bryan’s favourite place, and he spent his childhood exploring it. Many years later he used some of his most personally significant spots as locations for his harrowing graphic novel about the effects of child abuse, The Tale of One Bad Rat.

This film was put together by the Lakes International Comics Festival.

Also see our own page where I visited some of the locations in The Tale of One Bad Rat and took photos to compare them to Bryan's drawings.
