Impossible people : a completely average recovery story / Julia Wertz. by Wertz, Julia. Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers, 2023. Call #: 741.5973 W499i Subjects Wertz, Julia -- Alcohol use -- Comic books, strips, etc.   Alcoholics -- Rehabilitation -- Comic books, strips, etc.   Cartoonists -- United States -- Biography -- Comic books, strips, etc. ISBN:  9780762468256 (hc.) Edition:  1st ed. Description:  320 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. Summary:  Opening at the culmination of a disastrous trip to Puerto Rico, the first page of Impossible People finds Julia standing stupefied in the middle of the jungle beside a rental Jeep she's just crashed. From this moment, the story flashes back to the beginning of her five-year journey towards sobriety that includes group therapy sessions, relapses, an ill-fated relationship, terrible dates, and an unceremonious eviction from her New York City apartment. Far from the typical addiction narrative that follows an upward trajectory from rock bottom to rehab to recovery, Impossible People portrays the lesser told but more common story: That the road to recover is not always linear. With unflinching honesty, Wertz details the arduous, frustrating, and hilarious story of trying and failing and trying again. Genre:  Autobiographical comic books, strips, etc. Graphic non-fiction.
