Rezensionen

I don't know, she seems like a fairly interesting person, but for me this is not too far off from someone making a comic of their mostly banal diary entries. Perhaps it's more meaningful to people hooked into the graphic novel genre. I'm a mere occasional tourist here and might not be the appropriate reader. I mean, I know who Michel Gondry is, he's an intriguing film director and seeing his name on the back cover just might have prompted me to read this book, but all the writers in the graphic novel world she interacts with here are strangers to me, limiting my interest, no doubt.

And while she gives the reader a good sense of her private, reclusive nature, she keeps other things to herself and out of the work. Not surprisingly the best part of the book for me is the early part when she is with Gondry, and then she breaks it off with him, but... why? She didn't feel like sharing, which on the one hand, okay, she's a private person, but on the other, this is a memoir kind of thing, so... well.

Series of short stories in B&W (first one full colour), about everyday life in New York usually adults, sometimes surreal (female transforms herself into a chair in one, another finds herself placed inside a doll's house by a giant), relationships, sexual encounters, crushes, running away as a child, being an outcast at school, and friendship. Very short, entertaining read.

(from 2nd reading, 2020). I suspected I had read this before but wasn't sure. Gabrielle Bell is an observational and semi-autobiographical New Yorker comics writer. This collection has some amusing parts: her dissection of MySpace and early 2000s Internet and comics culture; her relationships with her ex-boyfriend Michel and her long-time friend Tony.
