ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Fun Home” by Alison Bechdel is a graphic memoir that explores the complexities of family, identity, and sexuality. The story centers on Bechdel's relationship with her father, a closeted gay man who ran a funeral home, and the secrets he hid throughout his life. Through flashbacks and reflections, Bechdel delves into her own coming-out process, her father's hidden life, and the emotional toll of their family dynamics. The memoir blends themes of identity, repression, and the impact of secrecy, using both art and literature to explore personal and familial struggles with acceptance and self-understanding.
