In this groundbreaking, bestselling graphic memoir, Alison Bechdel charts her fraught relationship with her late father. In her hands, personal history becomes a work of amazing subtlety and power, written with controlled force and enlivened with humor, rich literary allusion, and heartbreaking detail. Distant and exacting, Bruce Bechdel was an English teacher and director of the town funeral home, which Alison and her family referred to as the "Fun Home." It was not until college that Alison, who had recently come out as a lesbian, discovered that her father was also gay. A few weeks after this revelation, he was dead, leaving a legacy of mystery for his daughter to resolve.

开始以为是漫画书 不需要书签 翻到哪里看哪里 发现用了书签好多啦 内容太深了 加缪 尤利西斯 乔伊斯 追忆似水华年 麦田的守望者 了不起的盖茨比。看不懂啊看不懂。 最后狂敲爸爸柜门 爸爸眼中的恐惧画的好Q。爸爸最后在车里敞开心扉的分镜做的很好。一辈子没法面对自己。

几年没有这么频繁地查生词了。。。。。。smart form, smart narrative. Loaded and in excess, but could use a touch of simplicity
