Pretending is Lying
Author(s): Dominique Goblet, Sophie Yanow
Now in paperback, a "tender, affecting" (NYTBR) memoir unlike any other, and the first book to appear in English by the acclaimed Belgian artist Dominique Goblet.In a series of dazzling fragments-skipping through time, and from raw, slashing color to delicate black-and-white-Dominique Goblet examines the most important relationships in her life- with her partner, Guy Marc; with her daughter, Nikita; and with her parents. The result is an unnerving comedy of paternal dysfunction, an achingly ambivalent love story (with asides on Thomas Pynchon and the Beach Boys), and a searing account of childhood trauma-a dizzying, unforgettable view of a life in progress and a tour de force of the art of comics.
