Description

We Ate Wonder Bread is veteran cartoonist Nicole Hollander’s (Sylvia) first graphic novel, a coming-of-age story set in Chicago starring the gangsters, the bed bugs, the Catholic girls, the police, the jukebox, the fortune teller, and the family’s blue Hudson.

Not only does this illustrated memoir give insight into how Hollander developed her style and wit, it’s also a chronicle of a Chicago community that has since disappeared into an expressway.
