Uncomfortably Happy is at times uncomfortably honest and in this autobiographical depiction, Hong manages to draw himself into an extremely unlikeable character. Nevertheless, the challenges he and his wife face are common for newlyweds- money, housing, career aspirations - each they seem to approach with agonizing naiveté. This is a beast of a book and as my first graphic novel I was surprised by how easily I stayed engaged. I wouldn't say it's the best book I've read all year but it's still worth a look.

C'était une bd tranche de vie mais un peu too much dans le sens où c'était boring et pas du tout touchant. Le seul truc bien c'était l'aspect retour au source.
