Description
A special hardcover Deluxe Collector's Edition of Alison Bechdel's groundbreaking, bestselling graphic memoir and basis for the Tony Award-winning musical--featuring a cloth case with new art, a reversible jacket with new art on both sides enhanced with teal and silver foil, and sprayed edges.
Distant and exacting, Bruce Bechdel was an English teacher and director of the town funeral home, which Alison and her family referred to as the "Fun Home." It was not until college that Alison, who had recently come out as a lesbian, discovered that her father was also gay. A few weeks after this revelation, he was dead, leaving a confused legacy for his daughter to resolve.
In her hands, personal history becomes a work of subtlety and power, written with controlled force and enlivened with humor, rich literary allusion, and heartbreaking detail.
