Susceptible

Geneviève Castrée's Susceptible (2013–present, Drawn & Quarterly) is a single-issue graphic memoir that distills a lifetime of vulnerability into a series of intimate, hand-drawn vignettes. Castrée, the sole artist associated with the work, renders her own childhood and young adulthood with a delicate, almost fragile line, exploring themes of family, displacement, and emotional resilience. Though brief in length, the book stands as a quietly powerful testament to the autobiographical comics form, offering a raw and poetic glimpse into one artist's experience of growing up.
