Norris Natalie - Dear Mini A Graphic Memoir Book One - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: This debut graphic memoir (the first of two books with Book Two coming in 2025) is a bittersweet coming of age story that chronicles the author's teenage experiences with sexual assault PTSD and resiliency. Dear Mini is not a cautionary tale; rather it is a vivid (at turns hilariously and uncomfortably so) depiction of adolescent agency in the face of trauma tracing Norris's journey from wayward wild - child to resilient adult who has harnessed her voice after almost a decade of silence. Told in the form of an illustrated letter to an old friend Dear Mini recounts the author's experience going abroad to attend a language immersion programme in France after her sophomore year of high school. She meets Mini an Austrian student who shares her predilection for illicit adventure and the two quickly form a bond that they expect to last well after they go their separate ways. But when Natalie visits Mini ten months after their last face - to - face something has changed. Their nocturnal exploits veer head - on into disaster. Norris's spirited and free - flowing page designs and full colour cartooning bring her frank voice and personality to life making Dear Mini one of the most compelling graphic memoir debuts of 2023.
