Professional Reviews
Professional Reviews <b>Wilsey, Sean, <i>New York Times Book Review</i>:</b> "[A] pioneering work, pushing two genres (comics and memoir) in multiple new directions, with panels that combine the detail and technical proficiency of R. Crumb with a seriousness, emotional complexity and innovation completely its own...Bechdel's rich language and precise images combine to create a lush piece of work--a memoir where concision and detail are melded for maximum, obsessive density."

Publisher's Note Like many fathers, mine could occasionally be prevailed on for a spot of 'airplane.' As he launched me, my full weight would fall on the pivot point between his feet and my stomach. It was a discomfort well worth the rare physical contact, and certainly worth the moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.
