MELODY STORY OF A NUDE DANCER GN (MR)
(W) Rancourt, Sylvie (A) Rancourt, Sylvie (C) Rancourt, Sylvie
DRAWN & QUARTERLY
StockID: 77686 SKU: MAR231438
In 1980- Sylvie Rancourt and her boyfriend moved to Montreal from rural Northern Quebec. With limited formal education or training- they had a hard time finding employment- so Sylvie began dancing in strip clubs. These experiences formed the backbone of the first Canadian autobiographical comic book- Melody- which Rancourt wrote- drew- and distributed. The Rancourt drawn-and-written comics have never before seen English publication. These stories are compelling without ever being voyeuristic or self-pitying. Rancourt shares a world that- in someone else's writing- might be scandalous or seedy- but in hers is fully realized- real- and often funny.
