Look Back and Laugh
by Liz Prince
Liz Prince started drawing one comic every day at the beginning of 2016. This book collects 356 little strips and builds, piece by piece, a picture of her life. It was a tumultuous year- she got married, moved to a new state, bought a house, witnessed the election. It was also a mundane year- she took naps, petted her cats, drew comics, ate lunch with friends, watched TV. This mix of macro and micro events, plus the changing of the seasons, the ongoing attempts at better self-care and better work habits, create a story much greater than the sum of its parts. I love reading daily comics. I think they are one of the most interesting types of creative challenge for a cartoonist to take on. I've never kept up dailies longer than about six weeks, but every time I read someone else's I am inspired to try it again!
