Inspired by a 16th-century Zen monk\'s painting of a hundred demons chasing each other across a long scroll, acclaimed cartoonist Lynda Barry confronts various demons from her life in seventeen full-color vignettes. In Barry\'s hand, demons are the life moments that haunt you, form you and stay with you: your worst boyfriend; kickball games on a warm summer night; watching your baby brother dance; the smell of various houses in the neighborhood you grew up in; or the day you realize your childhood is long behind you and you are officially a teenager. As readers get to know Barry\'s demons, they realize that the actual truth no longer matters because the universality of Barry\'s comics, true or untrue, reigns supreme. (W/A/CA) Lynda Barry
