Duran Duran, Imelda Marcos, and Me

A graphic memoir by Lorina Mapa

"A wonderful graphic memoir, tinged with humor and tenderness. An intimate look at Philippine society and culture, but above all, a deeply endearing father-daughter love story." —Michel Rabagliati

When she learns of her beloved father's fatal car accident, Lorina Mapa flies to Manila to attend his funeral. Weaving the past with the present, Mapa entertains with stories about religion, pop culture, adolescence, and social class, including her experiences of the 1986 People Power Revolution which made headlines around the world. It is a love letter to her parents, family, friends, country of birth, and in the end, perhaps even to herself.
