En 'Fun Home: Una Familia Tragicómica', Alison Bechdel nos presenta una memoria gráfica fresca y brillantemente narrada, marcada por giros góticos, una funeraria familiar, angustia sexual y grandes libros. Al igual que 'Persépolis' de Marjane Satrapi, es una historia que se adapta de manera estimulante a la forma de una memoria gráfica. Conoce al padre de Alison: experto en preservación histórica y restaurador obsesivo de la casa victoriana de la familia, director de una funeraria de tercera generación, profesor de inglés de secundaria, un padre fríamente distante y un homosexual en el armario, quien, resulta, está involucrado con sus alumnos varones y la niñera de la familia. A través de una narrativa que es alternativamente desgarradora y ferozmente divertida, somos arrastrados al anhelo complejo de una hija por su padre. Cuando Alison se declara homosexual en la adolescencia tardía, el desenlace es rápido, gráfico y redentor.
