Description
Chartwell Manor is a graphic memoir that tells the story of Glenn Head's two-year experience at Mendham boarding school in the early 1970s. The school was run by a serial abuser, leaving emotional scars that continue to affect Head today. This book is a deeply personal account of Head's struggles with addiction and self-destructive behavior, which he attributes to his traumatic childhood. With unsparing honesty, Head depicts himself as a flawed individual trying to make sense of the circumstances that shaped him. Published in 2021, Chartwell Manor is a powerful exploration of the lasting impact of childhood trauma on adult life.
