An intimate, clever, and ultimately gut-wrenching graphic memoir about the daily decision people must make between being sexualized or being invisible—now in paperbackIn Commute, we follow author and illustrator Erin Williams on her daily commute to and from work, punctuated by recollections of sexual encounters as well as memories of her battle with alcoholism, addiction, and recovery. As she moves through the world navigating banal, familiar, and sometimes uncomfortable interactions with the familiar-faced strangers she sees daily, Williams weaves together a riveting collection of flashbacks.Williams recollections highlight the indefinable moments when lines are crossed and a woman must ask herself if the only way to avoid being objectified is to simply cease drawing any attention to her physical being. She delves into the gray space that lives between consent and assault and tenderly explores the complexity of the shame, guilt, vulnerability, and responsibility attached to both.Praise for Commute“This sharp and splendidly drawn memoir will strike a strong chord in the current moment. ” —Publishers Weekly, starred review“One day’s commute offers time for the author to reflect on sexual predators, alcoholism, and the experiences she understands better now than she did at the time. . . . A catharsis for the author that fits perfectly within a pivotal period for society and culture at large.” —Kirkus Reviews“This is welcoming, soul-baring, stunningly interconnected, and very discussable.” —Booklist

“A humane and gripping work that illuminates how (and why) our treatments of chronic illness fail, and a devastating portrait of the ways our society fails to protect the bodies of its most vulnerable members.” —Melissa Febos, author of Girlhood, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award What’s Wrong? is author, illustrator, and scientific researcher Erin Williams’s graphic exploration of how the American health-care system fails us. Focusing on four raw and complex firsthand accounts, plus Williams’s own story, this book examines the consequences of living with interconnected illnesses and conditions like: immunodeficiency cancer endometriosis alcoholism severe depression PTSD Western medicine, which intends to cure illness and minimize pain, often causes more loss, abuse, and suffering for those Americans who don’t fit within the narrow definition of who the system was built to serve—cis, white, heterosexual men. The book explores the many ways in which those receiving medical care are often overlooked, unseen, and doubted by the very clinicians who are supposed to heal them. What’s Wrong? is also a beautiful celebration of nontraditional modes of healing, of how we become whole not because of health care but despite it.

En stark och utmanande självbiografisk serieroman som utforskar kvinnlig skam och de suddiga gränserna mellan ja och nej, mellan samtycke och övergrepp, och den balansgång som kvinnor dagligen tvingas göra mellan att bli sedda som sexobjekt och att inte bli sedda alls. I Pendla får vi följa med författaren och illustratören Erin Williams på hennes dagliga kollektivresor till och från arbetet, ackompanjerade av minnen av såväl sexuella möten som hennes kamp mot alkoholism och drogberoende. Williams skildrar banala, komiska och ibland obekväma stunder av socialt samspel med medpassagerarna, vars välbekanta ansikten hon ser varje dag på tunnelbanan. De vävs ihop med en tät samling återblickar som belyser de odefinierade ögonblick då gränserna överskrids. Ögonblick då en kvinna måste fråga sig om enda sättet att inte bli objektifierad är att helt enkelt låta bli att dra till sig någon uppmärksamhet. Det är utlämnande, drabbande och välformulerat. Blandningen av vardagsbetraktelser, tunga minnen och sarkastiska kommentarer håller läsaren på tårna och får skrattet att fastna i halsen. På ett bra sätt. Williams sätter fingret på något som de flesta kvinnor kan känna igen sig i, skammen, och hyllar just kvinnorna i hennes omgivning som hjälpt henne igenom den. Det här är väldigt bra. Helhetsbetyg: 4 Camilla Bergvall, BTJ-häftet nr 13, 2021 Erin Williams är författare, illustratör och forskare, bosatt i New York. Hon är medförfattare till The Big Fat Activity Book for Pregnant People och The Activity Book for Anxious People.
