Couch Tag

Veteran alternative cartoonist Jesse Reklaw, creator of the long-running weekly comic strip Slow Wave, delivers a tragicomic graphic memoir that she tells in five parts.

Presented as a series of comic novellas that together compromise a thoughtful (sometimes dark) and often hilarious memoir about childhood, family, death, mental illness, sex and drug use, Couch Tag is told through cleverly inviting conceits like cat histories and card games.
