Are You My Mother?
From the New York Times bestselling author of Fun Home, Are You My Mother?: A Comic Drama is a brilliantly told graphic memoir of Alison Bechdel becoming the artist her mother wanted to be.A New York Times, USA Today, and Time Best Book of the YearAlison Bechdel's Fun Home was a pop culture and literary phenomenon. Now, a second thrilling tale of filial sleuthery, this time about her mother: voracious reader, music lover, passionate amateur actor. Also a woman, unhappily married to a closeted gay man, whose artistic aspirations simmered under the surface of Bechdel's childhood . . . and who stopped touching or kissing her daughter good night, forever, when she was seven. Poignantly, hilariously, Bechdel embarks on a quest for answers concerning the mother-daughter gulf. It's a richly layered search that leads readers from the fascinating life and work of the iconic twentieth-century psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott, to one explosively illuminating Dr. Seuss illustration, to Bechdel's own (serially monogamous) adult love life. And, finally, back to Mother — to a truce, fragile and real-time, that will move and astonish all adult children of gifted mothers.

Fun Home
Der größte literarische Überraschungserfolg des Jahres 2006 aus den USA erzählt von einer jungen Frau, die einem Familiengeheimnis auf die Spur kommt. Sensationell ist die Form, in der die Geschichte erzählt wird: In Worten und Bildern, die sich zu einem Meisterwerk der Comic-Kunst zusammenfügen.Alison Bechdel, Autorin und Erzählerin von Fun Home, verstand in ihrer Jugend nie, warum ihr Vater, Bestattungsunternehmer und Englischlehrer an der örtlichen Highschool, offenbar seine Bücher mehr liebte als seine Familie. Sie leben in einem Haus aus dem Jahr 1867, stilvoll und detailversessen restauriert vom Vater. Als Alison 19 Jahre alt ist, kommt ihr Vater ums Leben. Selbstmord oder Unfall? Das wird sich nicht mehr klären lassen. Was aber ans Licht kommt, ist ein Geheimnis, das Vater und Tochter teilen: Beide sind sie homosexuell. Mit diesem Wissen nähert sich Alison in Fun Home ihrem Vater, den sie schon vor seinem Tod schmerzlich vermisste.In Kapiteln, die nach Klassikern der Weltliteratur benannt sind, umkreist Alison Bechdel die Zeit vor und nach dem Tod des Vaters. Dabei zieht sie alle Register: Sie bedient sich bei der griechischen Mythologie ebenso wie bei der Existenzphilosophie, bei Oscar Wilde, Marcel Proust und im Trivialmythenschatz der amerikanischen Kultur. Heraus kommt ein irrwitzig komisches, melancholisches und kluges Buch einer Tochter, die dem Vater in Wort und Bild die Liebe nachträgt.Fun Home wurde vom Time Magazine noch vor den jüngsten Romanen von Richard Ford und Cormac McCarthy zum besten literarischen Buch des Jahres 2006 gewählt, zahlreiche andere Würdigungen folgten.

Das Geheimnis meiner Superkraft
Alison Bechdel, die Königin der Graphic Novel, schenkt uns erneut ein Meisterwerk, das unfassbar komisch, extrem klug und dazu richtiggehend süchtigmachend ist. Ihr ganzes Leben lang ist Alison Bechdel einem schwer fassbaren Mysterium auf der Spur, dem Mysterium der übermenschlichen Kraft. Sie hat in ihren Lieblingsbüchern danach gesucht, im Leben ihrer Held*innen, im Zölibat, in der Polyamorie, im Aktivismus, in der Therapie und vor allem in ihrer lebenslangen Leidenschaft für Sport. Skifahren, Laufen, Karate, Radfahren, Yoga, Gewichtheben - sie hat alles ausprobiert. In diesem Buch zeichnet Alison Bechdel eine vielschichtige und sehr persönliche Geschichte über das Selbst, über Selbstsabotage, Sterblichkeit, Sucht, Glückseligkeit und die Sorgen einer ganzen Generation. 'Dies ist eins der Highlights dieses Jahres.' Bookseller

Kaputt
Von ihrem Zwergziegen-Gnadenhof in Vermont aus fragt sich die Comiczeichnerin Alison Bechdel: Kann sie die Menschheit aus ihrer Todesspirale befreien, indem sie eine bissige Autobiografie über ihre eigene Gier und ihre Privilegien schreibt? Aber wie könnte sie dasitzen und an einem Buch arbeiten, während das Schicksal der Welt am seidenen Faden hängt und das Land, in dem sie lebt, am Rande eines Bürgerkriegs steht?Alison Bechdel, Autorin der preisgekrönten autobiografischen Graphic Novel FUN HOME, hat mit KAPUTT eine autofiktionale Satire geschaffen, in der eine Gruppe liberaler Babyboomer, darunter Alison und ihre Frau Holly, mit den Fallstricken des Kapitalismus konfrontiert wird. Die Clique erfüllt jedes Klischee, das die US-amerikanische Rechte abfällig als 'Woke-Kultur' bezeichnet. Das Verblassen von Idealen im Laufe der Jahre und die Zugeständnisse, die man mit zunehmendem Alter macht, quälen die fiktive Alison ebenso wie das Gefühl, mit den TV-Rechten ihres Graphic-Novel-Bestsellers auch ihre künstlerische Unabhängigkeit verkauft zu haben.KAPUTT ist ein höchst komisches und leidenschaftlich politisches Werk der Autofiktion und beweist einmal mehr, dass 'niemand es besser macht' (New York Times) als die echte Alison Bechdel.

The Secret to Superhuman Strength
The Best Graphic Book of 2021 by Publishers Weekly | A New York Times Best Graphic Novel of 2021 | A New York Times Notable Book | An Autostraddle Best Queer Book of the Year | A Boston Globe Best Book of the Year | A St. Louis Post Dispatch Best Book of the Year | NPR, 12 Books NPR Staffers Loved | Shelf Awareness Best Books of 2021 From the author of Fun Home, a profoundly affecting graphic memoir of Bechdel's lifelong love affair with exercise, set against a hilarious chronicle of fitness fads in our timesComics and cultural superstar Alison Bechdel delivers a deeply layered story of her fascination, from childhood to adulthood, with every fitness craze to come down the pike: from Jack LaLanne in the 60s ("Outlandish jumpsuit! Cantaloupe-sized guns!") to the existential oddness of present-day spin class. Readers will see their athletic or semi-active pasts flash before their eyes through an ever-evolving panoply of running shoes, bicycles, skis, and sundry other gear. But the more Bechdel tries to improve herself, the more her self appears to be the thing in her way. She turns for enlightenment to Eastern philosophers and literary figures, including Beat writer Jack Kerouac, whose search for self-transcendence in the great outdoors appears in moving conversation with the author’s own. This gifted artist and not-getting-any-younger exerciser comes to a soulful conclusion. The secret to superhuman strength lies not in six-pack abs, but in something much less clearly defined: facing her own non-transcendent but all-important interdependence with others.A heartrendingly comic chronicle for our times.
