Ethel and Ernest by Raymond Briggs
2.0

This graphic novel tells the true story of Ethel and Ernest - a couple who met in the 1920/30s and raised a family during the war. Unfortunately I didn't really get on with this graphic novel. I just didn't care about the story or the characters and I think it could just be a cultural thing. I'm not British so I don't connect with the political jokes that were brought up in this or the experience of living during the war. I'm not sure why,I just didn't connect with the story at all.
