Beautifully illustrated, and full of interesting facts. The point is to humanize Pat, showing all of her quirks, flaws, and cooler qualities

Beautiful artwork. The author really encouraged me to reflect on Patricia Highsmiths legacy with who she was as a person. Very interesting read.

Very well-written and illustrated graphic novel.

I didn't really know anything much about Highsmith before except I'd seen that Carol movie. I wonder if she'd have been a better person if she lived in more affirming times. I kinda think not, but at least she would have lived in times more accepting of flawed women.
