In the summer of 2006 , a French translation of '' Fun Home '' was serialized in the Paris newspaper '' Libération '' ( which had previously serialized '' Persepolis '' by Marjane Satrapi ) . This translation , by Corinne Julve and Lili Sztajn , was subsequently published by Éditions Denoël on October 26 , 2006 . In January 2007 , '' Fun Home '' was an official selection of the Angoulême International Comics Festival . In the same month , the Anglophone Studies department of the Université François Rabelais , Tours sponsored an academic conference on Bechdel 's work , with presentations in Paris and Tours . At this conference , papers were presented examining '' Fun Home '' from several perspectives : as containing " trajectories " filled with paradoxical tension ; as a text interacting with images as a paratext ; and as a search for meaning using drag as a metaphor . These papers and others on Bechdel and her work were later published in the peer-reviewed journal '' GRAAT '' ( '' Groupe de Recherches Anglo-Américaines de Tours '' , or Tours Anglo-American Research Group )
