Date de publication (France) : 2006Langue d'origine : AnglaisRésumé : A graphic novel by poet Daphne Gottlieb and Hothead Paisan creator Diane DiMassa in which a 19-year-old woman named Sasha loses her father to cancer and takes a job in the hospital where he had worked as a doctor. Moving from room to room with her clipboard of forms, Sasha encounters the insane, the suicidal, and the brave - then returns to her office to look up all her friends' and enemies' medical records. Taking its title from Freud's Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious, Gottlieb and DiMassa's first collaboration is both moving and darkly funny. Where comedy meets chemo, where mirth meets mortality, Jokes And The Unconscious explores the murky terrain of grief, memory, humour and sexual escape.ISBN : 9781573442503
