She was a relatively carefree Montreal twentysomething, with a healthy social life and a habit of singing in the shower until a severe vocal injury forced her into months of silence. In the pages of Dumb, a deeply personal graphic memoir, Georgia Webber renders the everyday challenges that come with voicelessness. Earning a living becomes a near-impossible task. Conversing with friends becomes an exhausting hurdle. Her raw cartooning style perfectly captures her frustration, and the anxiety that advances from two fronts: the ways she is perceived by others and the new doubt-ridden ways she perceives herself. But throughout her silent journey, she learns how deeply her voice and identity are intertwined and discovers new ways of expressing herself. 650 4 $a Graphic novel. 600 10 $a Webber, Georgia $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Throat $x Wounds and injuries $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Mute persons $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Mute persons $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographical comics. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Nonfiction comics. $2 lcgft 941 $a 5 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021011406.0 952 $l TAPB572 $d 20221202014509.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20200730010939.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200721011508.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20181016010626.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5FE0814A961911E8A89F3E0097128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
