In this graphic memoir, Alison Bechdel charts her fraught relationship with her late father.
Distant and exacting, Bruce Bechdel was an English teacher and director of the town funeral home, which Alison and her family referred to as the Fun Home.

A few weeks after this revelation, he was dead, leaving a legacy of mystery for his daughter to resolve.
