Parenthesis

<b>A triumph of graphic memoir, <i>Parenthesis</i> narrates the author's experience with tumor-related epilepsy--losing herself, and finding herself again.</b><br><br>Judith is barely out of her teens when a tumor begins pressing on her brain, ushering in a new world of seizures, memory gaps, and loss of self. Suddenly, the sentence of her normal life has been interrupted by the opening of a parenthesis that may never close.<br><br>Based on the real experiences of cartoonist Élodie Durand, <i>Parenthesis</i> is a gripping testament of struggle, fragility, acceptance, and transformation which was deservedly awarded the Revelation Prize of the Angoulême International Comics Festival.
