Pretending Is Lying por Dominique Goblet

Didn’t love this “graphic memoir”. I’d seen a review putting it in the same category as Maus, Persepolis, and The Arab of the Future. Those three really worked for me, I really liked them, but this one not nearly as much. I guess it’s pretty arty, but not in a way that appealed to me.

Pretending Is Lying por Dominique Goblet

This atmospheric, moody graphic memoir is full of beautiful and emotional illustrations that tells of a dysfunctional family. The illustrations feel very organic, in a way, the colors bleed into one another, the text is handwritten in different styles, the colors are muted and sepia-toned. For me, the storyline was a bit hard to follow in parts, a bit disjointed but still haunting. Goblet is a Belgian visual artist and I happened to come across this graphic memoir while browsing the ebook catalogue. I hadn’t heard of her before and after looking her up, learnt that she has quite a few graphic novels but it doesn’t look like any others have been translated into English. Pretending is Lying was published by @nyrcomics in 2016. Hopefully they will publish her other books?

Pretending Is Lying por Sophie Yanow

Loooove the way this looks and a lot of the dialogue. (I know it's a memoir type thing, but) Not really that interested in the actual story.
