OLDER FICTION
Egbert, Corey

Visitations

(3) YA This poignant, heart-wrenching graphic memoir follows a young boy struggling with his mother’s mental illness and his parents’ divorce. Corey grapples with confusion and his changing perception of his mother after she dramatically puts a stop to his father’s court-ordered parental visitations. The story skillfully portrays emotional turmoil, resilience, religious doubt, and the complexities of family. The muted, elegiac artwork beautifully complements the text, making this a powerful, empathetic read about trauma and survival.
