{"product_id":"9781573446174","title":"Jokes and the Unconscious: A Graphic Novel","description":"Heard the one about the dying father? In this savagely brilliant graphic novel by slam poet Daphne Gottlieb (Final Girl) and Hothead Paisan creator Diane DiMassa, a 19-year-old woman named Sasha loses her father to cancer and takes a job in the hospital where he had worked as a doctor. Moving from room to room with her clipboard of forms, Sasha encounters the insane, the suicidal, and the brave — then returns to her office to look up all her friends’ and enemies’ medical records. Taking its title from Freud’s \u003ci\u003eJokes and their Relation to the Unconscious\u003c\/i\u003e, Gottlieb and DiMassa’s first collaboration is both moving and darkly funny. Where comedy meets chemo, where mirth meets mortality, \u003ci\u003eJokes and the Unconscious\u003c\/i\u003e explores the murky terrain of grief — a shadowland of memory, sexual escape, and morbid snickering.","brand":"Cleis Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150190493936,"sku":"9781573446174","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781573446174_p0.jpg?v=1769900576","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781573446174","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
