Roz Chast: Cartoons as Family Memoir

Award-winning cartoonist Roz Chast discusses and shows her drawings from The New Yorker and from her acclaimed graphic novel, Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? Told primarily through Chast's hallmark cartoons, this unflinchingly honest memoir captures an only child's experience coping with her elderly parents' decline, in all its absurdity, grimness, and poignancy.

I would love to see this exhibition! Chast is the New Yorker's most offbeat cartoonist and her work ushered in a new sensibility for an edgier zeitgeist at one of the the East Coast's most iconic establishment periodicals.
