“A layered re-seeing of a traumatic event making the case that we change our own experience! In the gaps between our traumas and the stories we tell about them lie all the blanks, shifts, and elisions that we connect like dots into meaning.” —Rhoda Janzen, author of Mennonite in a Little Black Dress
“A master class in reassembling narratives of trauma and of self, leading us through with patience, authenticity, and vulnerability, providing a guide for the rest of us.”—MK Czerwiec, author of Menopause: A Comic Treatment
“A wise, necessary consideration of memory, PTSD, and how our realities form around trauma. A welcome addition to the Graphic Medicine canon!”—Nicole J. Georges, author of Fetch and Calling Dr. Laura
