A Comic Drama","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the New York Times bestselling author of Fun Home, Are You My Mother?: A Comic Drama is a brilliantly told graphic memoir of Alison Bechdel becoming the artist her mother wanted to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA New York Times, USA Today, and Time Best Book of the Year\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlison Bechdel’s Fun Home was a pop culture and literary phenomenon. Now, a second thrilling tale of filial sleuthery, this time about her mother: voracious reader, music lover, passionate amateur actor. Also a woman, unhappily married to a closeted gay man, whose artistic aspirations simmered under the surface of Bechdel's childhood . . . and who stopped touching or kissing her daughter good night, forever, when she was seven.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoignantly, hilariously, Bechdel embarks on a quest for answers concerning the mother-daughter gulf. It's a richly layered search that leads readers from the fascinating life and work of the iconic twentieth-century psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott, to one explosively illuminating Dr. Seuss illustration, to Bechdel’s own (serially monogamous) adult love life. And, finally, back to Mother — to a truce, fragile and real-time, that will move and astonish all adult children of gifted mothers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45502835851487,"sku":"9780544002234","price":37.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/2185\/3151\/files\/9780544002234.jpg?v=1744079613","url":"https:\/\/lamplightbooks.pro\/products\/are-you-my-mother-a-comic-drama","provider":"Lamplight Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
