Most of them are lesbians, living in a midsize American city that may or may not be Minneapolis. Bechdel's brilliantly imagined countercultural band of friends--academics, social workers, bookstore clerks--fall in and out of love, negotiate friendships, raise children, switch careers, and cope with aging parents. Bechdel fuses high and low culture--from foreign policy to domestic routine, hot sex to postmodern theory--in a serial graphic narrative \"suitable for humanists of all persuasions.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eALISON BECHDEL is the author of the best-selling memoirs \u003ci\u003eFun Home\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAre You My Mother?, \u003c\/i\u003eand the writer and artist behind the\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ecomic strip \u003ci\u003eDykes to Watch Out For.\u003c\/i\u003e Bechdel has been the recipient of a MacArthur \"genius\" grant, was guest editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Best American Comics 2011\u003c\/i\u003e, and has drawn comics for \u003ci\u003eSlate, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eMcSweeney's, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly, \u003c\/i\u003e and the\u003ci\u003e New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.1 x 7.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44379729592422,"sku":"9780358424178","price":27.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/d1ZaMmVFWkhqaGJPZ3o2VlpTVUZyZz09.webp?v=1768924674","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-essential-dykes-to-watch-out-for-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
