In his new memoir, cartoonist Adrian Tomine doesn't focus on his successes — but examines the trajectory of his life through embarrassing moments and setbacks. The book is mesmerizing, funny and deeply honest, our critic writes.
Anyone who has ever heard me talk about being a book critic knows that I am passionate about this work and take it extremely seriously. It's rare that I begin reviews so self-consciously, but sinceby Adrian Tomine spends some time on the relationship between artist and critic and audience, I can't help but be especially aware of Tomine potentially reading these words.
is a graphic memoir that follows Tomine — whose name is mispronounced in one encounter after another — from his earliest days as a self-publishing cartoonist to his present-day career as a graphic novelist with several comics collections, books, and a plethora ofcovers to his name. But although he's been a working artist for at least a quarter of a century, with his first mini-comicreleased in 1995, the memoir is relatively short, only 168 pages.
