Description

A powerful work of autobiography told in comics form as Catharine Margaret Flaherty searches for the truth about her own life. While looking through her parents' dresser drawer, she discovers her own adoption papers. Now, as an adult, she finally beigns the search for her birth mother. Drawn with simple lines and two-colour inking process, Doherty mixes careful juxtapositions of her past and present, visual echoes of earlier times in her own life and imaginings she has as her mother as a young woman.
