What is And now I spill the family secrets : an illustrated memoir about?
In the spirit of Alison Bechdel's Fun Home and Roz Chast's Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?, Margaret Kimball's AND NOW I SPILL THE FAMILY SECRETS begins in the aftermath of a tragedy. 0In 1988, when Kimball is only four years old, her mother attempts suicide on Mother's Day-and this becomes one of many things Kimball's family never speaks about. As she searches for answers nearly thirty years later, Kimball embarks on a thrilling visual journey into the secrets her family has kept for decades.0 Using old diary entries, hospital records, home videos, and other archives, Margaret pieces together a narrative map of her childhood-her mother's bipolar disorder, her grandmother's institutionalization, and her brother's increasing struggles-in an attempt to understand what no one likes to talk about: the fractures in her family. 0Both a coming-of-age story about family dysfunction and a reflection on mental health, AND NOW I SPILL THE FAMILY SECRETS is funny, poignant, and deeply inspiring in its portrayal of what drives a family apart and what keeps them together
