The Summer of Love by Debbie Drechsler

The New Girl In Town Widely acknowledged as one of the great female cartoonists for her expressive and candid style, Drechsler's book is an achingly true portrait of life as a girl. Lili and her sister Pearl encounter all the triumphs and cruelties of teenage life when they move to a boring suburb and they search for new friends. Drechsler's style is always arresting and surprisingly revealing. Her dialogue rings out with the subtlety and candor of teenage voices raised in anger, mockery and joy.
"Drechsler's Drawings Are Characterized By An Expressive Linear Flair And Dark, Vividly Patterned Forms..Stylish And Poetic." - Publishers Weekly; "A Beautifully Drawn, Poignant Book." - Seventeen Magazine; "Drechsler Has The Ability To Unearth The Memories We've All Buried In The Back Yards Of Our Minds." - American Book Review; "Every Detail Here Seems Right, And True." - Washington Post Book World
Drechsler's award-winning comix and graphic novel, Daddy's Girl, depict the disturbing realities of growing up an American girl. Drechsler lives in Santa Rosa, CA where she is working on a new novel.
