description: In her first full-length graphic memoir Julia Wertz (creator of the cult-hit comic The Fart Party) documents the year she left San Francisco for the unfamiliar streets of New York. Dont worrythis isnt the typical redemptive coming-of-age tale of a young woman and her glorious triumph over tragedy or any such nonsense. Its simply a hilariousoccasionally poignantbook filled with interesting art absurd humor and plenty of amusing self-deprecation. Box by box Wertz chronicles four sketchy apartments seven terrible jobs family drama traveling fiascos and too many whiskey bottles to count.
