A beautiful hardcover rerelease of the critically acclaimed manga that won the Harvey Award--with a new cover and bonus chapter. My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness is a raw and heartfelt account of one young woman's struggles with her sexuality, mental well-being, and feelings of alienation in our modern age. Told using expressive artwork that invokes both laughter and tears, this intensely personal and insightful work was previously released in a single volume paperback edition that garnered critical acclaim from across the globe, won several awards, and topped "best-of" lists in multiple categories. This hardcover special edition features new cover art and an all-new bonus chapter by the author.

Reminded me of [b:Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic 26135825 Fun Home A Family Tragicomic Alison Bechdel https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1440097020s/26135825.jpg 911368] a little bit. Sweet and honest with nice, expressive art.
Not what I expected and was surprised and was relieved. So glad the author could share her experiences.
I really liked her (brief) explanation of her feelings about her gender: “It wasn't that I saw myself as a man; it was more like I hated belonging to a gender at all. I was excessively afraid of being defined as a woman...before I was seen as myself.”
