Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic
Chocoholic avatar reviewed on + 291 more book reviews


A woman reflects back on her upbringing with her mother who studies theater and her father, an English teacher / funeral home director / interior designer in this graphic memoir. There is a lot of sexual tension and angst and outright sexually explicit panels. It also deals with homosexuality, so if you're not okay with that sort of thing, don't bother reading this. I liked it, though the homosexual scenes made me uncomfortable (and I'm not a homophobe).
