Forney, who has garnered both Harvey and Eisner Award nominations for her comic strips and collections that address living happily and mostly safely in alternative cultures (including the call-girl profession), now provides readers with a still-lighthearted but genuinely serious view of her battles with bipolar disorder. Between 1998 and 2002, she worked with a psychiatrist to diagnose and then treat her manic-depressive swings. In her signature black-and-white cartoons, detailed just enough to pop from the page, Forney takes readers on an insightful and provocative tour of such issues as whether or not artistic creativity is numbed by treatment; the huge expense of psychotropic drugs and difficulty finding health insurance that covers mental health; how treatment has led her to be a better friend, collaborator, and independent earner; and other tributaries stemming from the big question of “What is really going to work to make this better?†A solid choice for mental-health collections as well as those of artists’ memoirs and graphic novels. --Francisca GoldsmithRead moreA Washington Post Best Book of 2012Named one of the best books of the year by East Bay ExpressNamed Best Graphic Novel of Fall 2012 by Time'Brutally honest and deeply moving, the book is by turns dark, mordant, and hilarious.

With wit, humor, a wicked sense of the absurd, and eloquent insight into the beauty that shines through the mercurial life of the mind, this graphic memoir explores its subject with a particular precision and power. Forney should be read.â€Â—Marya Hornbacher, author of Madness: A Bipolar Life'Ellen's work has always been hilarious and sharp, but Marbles has an emotional resonance that shows new depth as an artist and a writer. This is an extremely personal, brave, and rewarding book.'—Dan Savage, editor of It Gets Better and author of The Kid 'I have always admired Ellen Forney's humor and honesty, but Marbles is a major leap forw
