Description:
In this fresh, often funny autobiographical
graphic novel, Beldan Sezen depicts her coming of age, and her coming out as
lesbian, in both western and Islamic cultures (as the daughter of Turkish
immigrants in western Europe)―to
friends, family, and herself. Through a series of charming, self-deprecating
vignettes that take place in North America, Germany, the Netherlands, and
Turkey, she navigates the messy conflicts of her life, dealing with family
issues, bad dates, sexual politics, and self-Ââ€doubt with the honesty, humour and spunk of a young woman simply
looking for happiness around her. Imbued with the candor of Alison Bechdel and
the quirk of Lynda Barry, Snapshots of a Girl is a thoroughly modern, pop
culture-Ââ€infused take on
dyke life and cultural identity.
