A graphic memoir that follows a daughter trying to relate to a parent who struggles with mental illness

What The Reviewers Say

Tahneer Oksman,
NPR
A quiet, lonely read.
Julia Rittenberg,
Booklist
Loewinsohn’s debut resists the category of graphic memoir by switching between time lines and using the art to mirror the looping nature of memory.

Publishers Weekly
A sparse but astounding graphic memoir.
