Alison Bechdel did an excellent job on the book Fun Home. Although, personally I believe that the context and language was difficult at times. While reading the context in the book it became difficult because I began to lose the author when she spoke about literature and made personal connections to it. Maybe it was difficult to me because I never read any of the books she mentioned; therefore understanding her arguements only became that difficult and fustrating to understand. Despite this, Bechdel tried to incorporate the literature of the particular books into this small comic novel. I felt like she did this because she knew that her audience wouldn't understand or hasn't read any of the books that she mentioned.

Another form of Bachdel's writing in this particular book is flashbacks. What I mean by this is that Bechdel uses a lot of connection from past experience in her writing. Each chapter has a direct correlation to another from some sort of past experience. But, then again the book does solemly rely on her memory of her father, which was in the past so that does make sense. This made that book actually interesting when the context began to get difficult.

I also, adored how the author had pictures through out the book. I never read a novel, for school, that actually had pictures. The pictures interested and confused me at the same time. Not because the book was boring or anything. But, mainly because I have a hard time staying focused sometimes so the pictures would interupt my reading from time to time. Sometimes I just looked at the pictures then read the commentary. The actually detail in the picture made the book that much more interesting.

At some points in the novel the audience was us the reader and from other aspects I believe that the audience could have been herself as well. This, trying to convience herself the relevance to her father and his death. Through out the novel she talks about how writing in her diary because tedious and it showed her OCD as well. But I believe that by Alison Bechdel writing this novel it showed that through literature she lived. Therefore, by writing this book it could've let some certain release from the anger and repressed emotions she holds inside. Thus, making the audience true to herself.
Due to the extreme difficulty this book must have been to write, I think the author did a great job at telling her history through this tragicomic. And I congratulate her on showing creative, literal knowledge, as well as creativie writing through personal connection. I adore when authors go the extra mile and Bechdel did an excellent job!
