Alison Bechdel @ Left Bank Books

It was quite a crowd. Left Bank was beyond party capacity.
It was the place to check up on old girlfriends Saturday night.

The author gave us a digital slide show of panels from Fun Home
as she read the connecting text.

Did I mention I really enjoyed this book?
And not just because it had pictures.
I read the words, too.

Intellegent words, well drawn panels.
I didn't realize how painstakingly accurate the details were
until she talked about her process.
It just looked right, and she put a hella lot of effort in getting it there.
