1001 COMICS MINI-SITE
Even with 960 pages, I couldn't squeeze all the material I had into my book 1001 Comics You Must Read Before You Die. This mini-site is designed to supplement that book with updates, additional information and links... but obviously you'll still need a copy of the book!

Forget Sorrow: An Ancestral Tale
by Belle YangOriginal publisher: W.W. Norton & Co (USA)
First published: 2010
Reviewed by: Paul Gravett
Genre:
Autobiographical,
Historical
With drawings that remind me of van Gogh’s sketches, Yang tells a heartfelt interwoven story of family and finding oneself. - Ariel Schrag (Potential, Likewise)
Forget Sorrow is intimate and yet grand in scope. Through Belle Yang’s expert weaving of personal memoir and family history, we emerge with new understanding of pre-Communist China, ancestral lore, and father-daughter reconciliation. Yang’s drawings - and her heartfelt dialogue - make these long-ago stories feel both present and personal. A compelling addition to the comics memoir form. - Josh Neufeld (AD: New Orleans After The Deluge
