Need More Love: A Graphic Memoir door Aline Kominsky Crumb
This book is great! It's like hanging out with a best friend! Lately I've been thinking about friends of my mother that I haven't seen since the '90s, like Corinne with all the lawn art, or Deborah with the big butt, all unmarried artists with curly hair and a lot of jewelry. This book is the spiritual bridge between me and them. I can't tell you how much... that means to me...!
Kominsky-Crumb's ugly art and perverse confessional writing style are not without their charm in this large collection of strips produced over decades, and I enjoyed the first 50 pages more than I expected as I read through them at a leisurely pace. But the book was coming due at the library and I decided to power through the next 150 pages in a day, and at that pace the short strips start to take on a whiny and repetitive drone.
I allowed myself to slow down for one of the last and longest stories in the collection, which benefited from having an actual structure as the author revisited the homes she has had throughout her life.
Kominsky-Crumb will never be one of my favorite creators, but this book is worth a look for its artistic and historical value.… (meer)

Surprisingly good....I'm a huge RC fan and this seemed to be the perfect fit to allow me to get a more rounded view of him. I can't say that I'm now a huge fan of Aline's, but the perspective was certainly interesting.
I have enjoyed quite some of Robert Crumb's works in the past. Sadly, I can't say the same about Kominsky's. Nevertheless, I gave it a try and secretly hoped to like the experience. It didn't really work out…
I keep wondering.. why, Robert? WHYYY? Why did you put up with this? Why did you wait for Aline to finish a certain story? Sure, you can't rush things… and probably you had other things going on as well… but 2 years? Come on?! :D
You should have finished it all by yourself.. and I might have liked it a bit better ;)
If you are a Crumb-fan, go ahead… it's worth checking out this collaboration. But if you are unfamiliar with either of them, I have only one address: Robert Crumb!… (meer)
