Are You My Mother?
reviewed on + 279 more book reviews


Bechdel is a talented artist and writer, but this book will only be enjoyed by a very special reader as it's not for the masses. Her drawings are great but the format drove me crazy (funny, since she constantly refers to Freud) as I wanted to read left to right but little boxes of writing are all over the page. I laughed when reading Fun Home and hoped this book would be as much fun, but I couldn't finish it. Passing it back thru swap program, hoping next reader enjoys.
