A beautiful hardcover rerelease of the critically acclaimed manga that won the Harvey Award--with a new cover and bonus chapter.My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness is a raw and heartfelt account of one young woman's struggles with her sexuality, mental well-being, and feelings of alienation in our modern age. Told using expressive artwork that invokes both laughter and tears, this intensely personal and insightful work was previously released in a single volume paperback edition that garnered critical acclaim from across the globe, won several awards, and topped "best-of" lists in multiple categories. This hardcover special edition features new cover art and an all-new bonus chapter by the author.
Like others, she touched on things that I deal with on a daily basis, lack of motivation, eagerness to win parents approval, to be liked, the glittering strength of coming out of depression then bottoming out again, ect.. It was refreshing, and a bit inspiring, to read something so open and honest in the best book format in the world.
I am totally biased on that last comment, lol.
I can appreciate the strength it took in detailing intimate parts of her life for the sake of getting published and living out her dream as a mangaka. The art is simple with a pink and white aesthetic adding to uniqueness of a manga memoir, perfection for the material and vibe of the story.
I read this book online, in one night, and I plan to purchase a physical copy and the sequels.
