Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books
Arts:Books
Cartoonist and illustrator Denise Dorrance chats with Zibby about POLAR VORTEX, a poignant, heartbreaking, and darkly funny graphic memoir that perfectly captures the grief, nostalgia, and chaos of caring for an elderly, dementia-impaired parent in crisis. Denise recounts her experience of rushing back to Iowa from London to take care of her ailing mother and spending two chilling months with her—while a literal polar vortex loomed in the background. She also delves into the complexities of elder care, family dynamics, and the emotional toll of decision-making. Finally, she talks about her creative process and her evolution as an artist.
