Opis
A fast-paced, visually rich semi-memoir of diners, drugs, and self-discovery in 1970s California.
When Margaret is denied financial aid for her final year of art school, her dreams are put on hold - until she lands a waitressing job at Oakland's legendary greasy spoon, the Imperial Café. There, amid the clatter of dishes and the haze of cigarette smoke, Margaret reinvents herself as "Madge," a wide-eyed newcomer swept into the orbit of hard-partying cooks, sharp-tongued waitresses, and drifting artists clinging to adulthood by a thread.
At first, Madge fumbles through this gritty new world, mimicking the grown-ups around her with a mixture of awe and awkwardness. But as she dives deeper into late-'70s counterculture - replete with deadheads, disco, punk rock, casual sex, and copious drug use - she begins to see beneath the cool exteriors and bitter banter. What she finds is a kaleidoscope of contradictions: people full of longing, confusion, creativity, and self-destruction. Gradually, Madge begins to chart her own course, reclaiming her voice as an artist and a woman.
Over Easy is Mimi Pond's sly, stylish, and tender coming-of-age graphic novel - a portrait of a young woman finding herself while serving coffee and navigating chaos. With sharply observed characters, whip-smart dialogue, and a vivid sense of place, Pond captures a fleeting era with humor, heart, and a painter's eye for detail.
Perfect for fans of graphic memoirs, '70s nostalgia, and stories about finding identity in unexpected places.
