Second time reading Bechdel's second graphic memoir. Definitely not just a follow up to Fun Home, and not just about her Mother. To simplify, Are You my Mother is about Alison Bechdel's relationships; with her partners, her therapists, and her one & only Mom (real & imagined). Goes into psychoanalytic Freudian & post-Freudian ideas about the idea of the mother, and how the mother figure relates to psychotherapy theory. Writes a fair amount about Virginia Woolf and Donald Winnicott. It's not that difficult to see how someone would adapt Fun Home into a musical, but it's pretty impossible for me to see how Are You my Mother could be adapted. Maybe it someone could make a Tristram Shandy style movie out of it, but I digress. The biggest thing I think I missed on my first reading of Are you my Mother is how terrifying psychoanalysis sounds.
