comics-style drawing of a man and a woman sitting on either end of a couch in a messy room with a kid sitting on the floor — Why Don't You Love Me? by Paul B. Rainey

This is a good book that came to me at the wrong time. Themes: depression, dysfunctional relationships, alcoholism, child abuse, slipstream (genre), slipstream (actual), nuclear annihilation of all life. Very well written, the structure is superb. I just... it's the wrong time for it, for me.
