About this event
Join us to discuss a different graphic novel each month! This month's title is Blankets. Request your copy here. Craig Thompson's poignant memoir plays out against the backdrop of a Midwestern winterscape, drawing a portrait of small town life, a rigorously fundamentalist Christian childhood, and a lonely, emotionally mixed-up adolescence. Craig and Raina fall in love at church camp, revealing to one another their struggles with faith and their dreams of escape. Over time though, their personal demons resurface and their relationship falls apart.
