Though there is really no shortage of autobiographical graphic novels available now, Thompson's painful, funny, sometimes surreal story is second to none.
In Craig Thompson's nearly 600-page autobiographical masterpiece Blankets, the reader is taken on a journey through the reminiscences of the author.īlankets is an ambitious work, to say the least. Whatever these memories, no matter their effect, they serve to mold us into the people we ultimately become. And on occasion, it is the very nostalgia of those memories that allows us to smile and ache all at once. Other times, they remind us of good days gone by. Sometimes these memories serve to haunt us for our sins.
In the interwoven lives of all families, there are moments and times that will, for better or worse, create lasting memories. Words by Craig Thompson - Art by Craig Thompson - Published by Top Shelf - First published 2003
