Beschreibung
An autobiography, a romance, or a confession to a beloved medium, which for the author is comics? A bit of each. And above all, a story that required courage to be told so honestly. The main character, Štěpánka, guides us through her intimate experiences from puberty to the present while examining the unwritten rules of love and relationships. Štěpánka's ideas about relationships were shaped by living with her parents in a housing estate in the nineties, popular girls' magazines of the time, and Western TV series. The author reflects on the world of online dating and chats, modern apps often associated with casual sex, or toxic relationships. She takes us through university parties and feelings of loneliness, challenging the notions of what it means to be a young woman or man, and also shares her own experience of abuse. Štěpánka Jislová's most extensive work is a fitting culmination of her ten-year career and a two-hundred-page testament to the evolution of Czech comics.
