Kominsky-Crumb didn't worry about self-flattery. In fact, her darkest secrets and deepest insecurities were all the more fodder for groundbreaking stories. Her exaggerated comix alter ego, Bunch, is self-destructive and grotesque but crackles with the self-deprecating humor and honesty of a cartoonist confident in the story she wants to tell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eCollecting comics from the 1970s through today, Love That Bunch is shockingly prescient while still being an authentic story of its era. Kominsky-Crumb was ahead of her time in juxtaposing the contradictory nature of female sexuality with a proud, complicated feminism. Most important, she does so without apology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eOne of the most famous and idiosyncratic cartoonists of our time, Kominsky-Crumb traces her steps from a Beatles-loving fangirl, an East Village groupie, an adult grappling with her childhood, and a 1980s housewife and mother, to a new thirty-page story, “Dream House,” that looks back on her childhood forty years later. Love That Bunch will be Kominsky-Crumb's only solo-authored book in print. Originally published as a book in 1990, this new expanded edition follows her to the present, including an afterword penned by the noted comics scholar Hillary Chute.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drawn \u0026 Quarterly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51572355858730,"sku":"73218","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/2879\/4922\/files\/9781770463059_80cc0.jpg?v=1779477543","url":"https:\/\/stuartngbooks.com\/products\/love-that-bunch-73218","provider":"Stuart Ng Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
