Description

"I don't draw because I love to draw. I don't draw because I draw well. I draw because once, I lost something - and by drawing, I will find it again." **LONGLISTED FOR THE COMEDY WOMEN IN PRINT PRIZE 2020** Melancholy and funny, personal and surreal, Passing for Human is a neurological coming-of-age story in which Liana Finck goes in search of that thing she has lost - her shadow, that part of her that has always felt as though she is living in exile from the world. On a quest for self-understanding and self-acceptance, along the way, she seeks to answer some eternal questions- What makes us whole? What parts of ourselves do we hide or ignore or chase away - because they're embarrassing, or inconvenient - and at what cost? Part magical odyssey, part feminist creation myth, Passing for Human is most of all an extraordinary, moving meditation on what it means to be an artist and a woman.
