As the world changes around her, Edna is exposed to the callous racism of adults--sometimes subtle and other times blatant, but always stinging. By weaving the importance of music in adolescence with the forbidden friendship between Edna, who is white, and Bonna Willis, who is Black, Lynda Barry captures the earnest, awkward, yet always honest adolescent voice as perfectly in prose as she does in comics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Drawn \u0026amp; Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781770462618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.30h x 5.80w x 0.90d","brand":"Lynda Barry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36668267921564,"sku":"9781770462618","price":18.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_73f087e8-365a-48f7-b3b4-b8b6716d0dec.jpg?v=1603917115","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-good-times-are-killing-me-9781770462618","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
