A truly moving memoir that effortlessly weaves the art and the story together. I was very impressed with the technical skill and the beauty of the drawing. The story too manages to be both tragic and in some ways uplifting in the end. An amazing portrait of the intricate complexities of families and growing up. ( ) A lovely memoir in comic form. Not the best artwork or content, but very enjoyable to read and may be quite beneficial for an LGBTQ reader in their coming of age-- unfortunately I think that chapter of my life has already passed me by, so I am not the ideal audience for this particular tome. Still, time well spent reading it. I agree with Nathan that this isn't a hilarious book, but I thought it was waaaaay better than [book: Running with Scissors]--and not just because of all the literary stuff. I think I liked it better because it seemed more honest. And it had great pictures. I particularly liked it when she would draw the house from the outside with the windows framing each person.
Bechdel’s style is straightforward. Her detailed drawings strive to present what she remembers accurately and with detail. The book is black-and-white with a blue-grey watercolor wash that provides depth and adds to the feeling of memory. PrêmiosDistinctionsNotable Lists
This book takes its place alongside the unnerving, memorable, darkly funny family memoirs of Augusten Burroughs and Mary Karr. It's a father-daughter tale perfectly suited to the graphic memoir form. Meet Alison's father, a historic preservation expert and obsessive restorer of the family's Victorian house, a third-generation funeral home director, a high school English teacher, an icily distant parent, and a closeted homosexual who, as it turns out, is involved with male students and a family babysitter. Through narrative that is alternately heartbreaking and fiercely funny, we are drawn into a daughter's complex yearning for her father. And yet, apart from assigned stints dusting caskets at the family-owned 'fun home, ' as Alison and her brothers call it, the relationship achieves its most intimate expression through the shared code of books. When Alison comes out as homosexual herself in late adolescence, the denouement is swift, graphic, and redemptive.--From publisher description. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
