A darkly funny graphic novel from the acclaimed author of Petropolis Ulinich earned her literary stripes with her debut novel, Petropolis , and gained wide recognition for her textured characters” ( BUST Magazine ) and beautiful, far-ranging voice” (Gary Shteyngart). Ulinich’s long-awaited second work of fiction, the graphic novel Lena Finkle’s Magic Barrel , evokes Louis C.K.’s sensibilities and Amy Winehouse’s longing and anguishoften in the same frameas Ulinich turns her sharp eye toward the strange, sometimes unmooring world of grown-up” dating. After fifteen years of marriage, thirty-seven-year-old Lena embarks on a string of online dates and receives a brutally eye-opening education in love, sex, and loss while raising her two teenage daughters. With references to Bernard Malamud and Chekhov along the way, this is a smart, funny story told beautifully through Ulinich’s text and drawings.
