a Family Tragicomic
Nov 23, 2016ArapahoeSteffen rated this title 3.5 out of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this; it was one of the most cerebral things I've read since graduating. A well-read lesbian's biography which focuses mainly on her father, and her childhood in the 1970s. Turns out that her father was a closeted gay man for her entire upbringing, and not a flamboyantly fun gay man. Author Alison Bechdel's personal narrative is raw and dark, but level headed and very captivating.
