It feels weird reviewing someone's experience with their father.
Art/Comic :
I've never experience Michael Kupperman's art style so it was weird. But it was easy to adjust to after a few pages. It was no longer something foreign but it grows on you.
Quiz Kid:
I never heard of this show before this book. It talks about his fathers experiences in this and things surrounding the show. How it was used as propaganda for the war efforts at the time. About how his dad continued on the show and overstayed his welcome.
His dad felt he needed to be there because that's what the people running the show & his mom acted like. The over staying his welcome caused trauma-- people hated him and attacked him when he went to university.
"Maybe people needed to see and hear Jews, to know that they were actual human beings."
Family Disconnect:
This is about a son who is trying to understand and connect with his father. His father was disconnected from him and life too busy blocking out his past.
While this is discussing his father and his past with a game show. The conversation of having a disconnect and lack of connection inside his family.... hit way too close to home for me.
The need to understand the past to understand the future is the big takeaway from this memoir -- or at least for me it is.
