3 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
An inspiring and surprisingly comedic tale of loss and acceptance told largely through silent sequential narrative, About Betty’s Boob is a seminal work from master storytellers Véro Cazot and Julie Rocheleau. Betty lost her left breast, her job, and her guy. She does not know it yet, but this is the best day of her life.

I read this comic in my book club for Women‘s History month and it was a surprisingly uplifting and spirited book about one woman‘s experience with breast cancer. The comic is almost entirely wordless, so the art carries most of the story and it is fantastic! Certain sequences reminded me of old French cartoons and film.

I liked this one, tho the story is somewhat slight. This mostly wordless graphic novel is about a woman who survives breast cancer but then loses her boyfriend and her job because of the mastectomy. She then accidentally joins a burlesque troupe and comes into her own. Sounds heavy, but the whimsical art and the effervescent personality of the protagonist bring a lightness to it.

First book finished in the new year! #readinthenewyear 😄

Because I apparently have no self control (and a totally self-imposed and arbitrary #goodreadschallenge number I‘ve yet to meet) I took a quick break from work and walked over to the library to peruse their graphic novel shelves. I‘m not even ashamed that I walked away with more than I intended to... 🤣 #libraryhaul
