Diana

"""In this unorthodox survey of the Princess of Wales’s life and legacy, comics newcomer Piatigorsky-Roth finds parallels between their own navigation of gender as a trans person and Diana’s fraught relationship with celebrity and the monarchy. . . . Idiosyncratic and intimate, this heartfelt tribute doubles as a revealing self-portrait.”—Publishers Weekly ""Piatigorsky-Roth spends time exploring specifically how Diana’s story, performance of femininity, and ultimate desire to be seen as herself resonate deeply with the queer community. A thoughtful, layered conversation about how deeply we can be affected by people we can never really know.""—Booklist, the journal of the American Library Association “A layered meditation on celebrity, mythology, gender, and how your life can be profoundly shaped by someone you've never even met.”—Jillian Tamaki, author of Boundless “An extraordinary work of comics portraiture, rendered in elegant linework and overflowing with rich intertextual detail. Sivan Piatigorsky-Roth is an essential new cartooning voice. His emerging oeuvre is my new graphic obsession.”—Jason Adam Katzenstein, author of Everything is an Emergency “Mesmerizing, fascinating, and beguiling, this is a book that will draw you in completely. Like Diana herself, this book is a treasure.”—Emma Grove, author of The Third Person “A multifaceted exploration of queer identities through several unexpected and wholly novel lenses, Diana telescopes in scale from the level of heartbreaking detail out to the sweep of history and myth, all the while tethered to the poignant and personal.”—Bishakh Som, author of Apsara Engine and Spellbound “A keenly self-aware and compassionate look at Princess Diana, blending biography and memoir in this deeply personal and fascinating book.”—Ashley Robin Franklin, author of That Full Moon Feeling “A celebration of subversion, this finely rendered graphic novel uncovers fascinating depths at the intersection of gender, expectations, and transgression.”—Morgan Boecher, author of What’s Normal Anyway"
