A relative’s depression-era diary inspires a young woman’s journey to adulthood In The Weight- Melissa Mendes’ pastoral cartooning captures the openness of rural America—soft breezes- tall grass- whirring grasshoppers- rainstorms- skinned knees. But all the while- the cruelty- the disappointment of man lurks behind the barn and in the trailer. Life can be stubbed out as easily as a cigarette tossed in the dirt. One moment all focus- next- gone without a thought. Will Edie find herself repeating a cycle or will she be free like she felt as a child?
