- Description
- The author explores the verbal and visual techniques of five cartoonists - Aline Kominsky-Crumb, Phoebe Gloeckner, Phoebe Gloeckner, Marjane Satrapi, and Alison Bechdel -, which have transformed autobiographical narrative and contemporary comics. Through the interplay of words and images, and the counterpoint of presence and absence, they express stories while engaging with the workings of memory. Aline Kominsky-Crumb is a pioneer of the autobiographical form, showing women's everyday lives, especially through the lens of the body. Phoebe Gloeckner places teenage sexuality at the center of her work, while Lynda Barry uses collage and the empty spaces between frames to capture the process of memory. Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis experiments with visual witness to frame her personal and historical narrative, and Alison Bechdel's Fun Home meticulously incorporates family documents by hand to re-present the author's past.
