Couch Fiction: A Graphic Tale of Psychotherapy

Product Information

Seeing the nuances of therapy, the missed moments and the overzealous comments made me cringe and chuckle in equal merit.

And I suppose, grudgingly, I have to acknowledge that when the princess could not get a wink of sleep on her fifteen mattresses because of the pea hidden under the first mattress, it was real discomfort she was feeling.From the therapist perspective it was interesting to have an insight into her thoughts during the therapy process. Every session is not presented in detail, but the intent is to demystify the process of analysis by showing it from start to finish.

I read this thinking it would be an interesting comic and, as a comics fan of both popular and indie varieties, gave this a try.I was engaged, entertained and left feeling like I learned a thing or two, Couch Fiction was well worth the read. It's the visual equivalent of Perry's prose style, with the emphasis always on making everything clear to the reader.
