The Facts of Life



© Paula Knight 2017

The Facts of Life was published in 2017 by Myriad Editions (UK) and Penn State University Press (N America) after six years in the making. It is a graphic memoir about not being able to have children, and some of it (pages shown here) relates to how ME contributed to that situation: ME is truly a life-changing illness. I wish I’d had many more pages to deal with the politics and medical neglect of ME patients, but the book’s main focus was on childlessness in a pronatal society.
