Porcellino's minimalism is deft and often affecting--there's sometimes that particular kind of magic/rhythm where something happens in the moving between panels that comes together to make something bigger than any of the individual panels themselves--and his portrayal of his own deeply ill thought patterns is brutally honest and visceral, but. no reviews | add a review
"The Hospital Suite is a landmark work by the celebrated cartoonist and small-press legend John Porcellino--an autobiographical collection detailing his struggles with illness in the 1990s and early 2000s. In 1997, John began to have severe stomach pain. He soon found out he needed emergency surgery to remove a benign tumor from his small intestine. In the wake of the surgery, he had numerous health complications that led to a flare-up of his preexisting tendencies toward anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The Hospital Suite is Porcellino's response to these experiences" --From publisher's web site. No library descriptions found. |
