Graphic Novel Book Club: Perfect Hair by Tommi Parrish

Each month we host a Graphic Novel Book Club meeting, open to all, during which we hang out and informally discuss a featured graphic novel. Our pick for this January is Perfect Hair by Tommi Parrish. We will meet at La Petite Librairie Drawn & Quarterly (176 av Bernard Ouest) on Wednesday, January 17th at 7 p.m. The discussion will be hosted by Librairie Drawn & Quarterly staff member Anna De Filippi. Join us for refreshments and collective insights!

***We are offering a 20% discount on Perfect Hair from now until the meeting date!*** 

In Tommi Parrish's Perfect Hair figures form and re-form. And just that, on repeat, although sometimes with space in between. Stylistically, Parrish couples selective detailing with an equally precise sense of abstraction. The narratives bring to life both the construction of norms—sexual, gendered and familial—and their tentative undoings.

Watch out for the February 2018 release of Parrish's The Lie and How We Told It with Fantagraphics!
