Title: Didn't feel anything after I finished reading it
Product review: I know there are some fans out there of Harvey, Joyce, etc. I liked the movies "American Splendor" (big fan of Paul G.) and "Crumb" and took a chance on this book. I started reading it a while ago but stopped. A month ago I found out I had a pituitary adenoma (a.k.a. benign, slow-growing brain tumor). While going through one of the piles of books on my floor this morning I rediscovered this book and spent the day reading it. I'm pretty much left with a "So what?" feeling. One of my best friends from high school had NHL at about the same tme that Harvey did. He's subsequently had several surgeries for brain lesions. Maybe I'm just not the "American Splendor" graphic novel type, but I can't recommend this book to anyone, even if they or a loved one has cancer. I thought the illustrations were pretty good in that they well represented the emotions of the characters.
