Review of 'Swallow Me Whole' on 'Goodreads'
This is a remarkable graphic novel. The black & white art is fantastic. Parts of it are beautifully observed, perfect realism, while others are completely fantastical � but the fantastic is intended to represent mental illness, so as far as I know, it may be realistic, too. I did read this in one sitting, so it passes the 'suck me in' test (no pun intended). I can't say that I entirely enjoyed it, but I doubt that it's intended to be entirely enjoyable. My one reservation about Swallow Me Whole is that it nags at me that I can't tell exactly what happened near the end.
