Fun Home: Eine Familie von Gezeichneten

Alison Bechdel’s graphic memoir, published in German by Kiepenheuer & Witsch in 2008, traces her childhood in a small-town Pennsylvania funeral home and her complex relationship with her closeted, exacting father. Through a layered narrative that interweaves literary references, family photographs, and her own coming-out story, Bechdel examines the elusive truths of memory and identity. This single-volume work, drawn and written entirely by Bechdel, remains a landmark in autobiographical comics for its unflinching emotional and intellectual depth.
