Description
Time Zone J is Julie Doucet's first inked comic since she famously quit in the nineties after an exhausting career in an industry that made little room for women. This 1989 diary-based romance tells of a whirlwind visit between two people who only know each other through letters.
The passion and high emotions of youth are palpable as Doucet recounts her brief but intense relationship with someone she's never met in person. In contrast, the present-day pages of Time Zone J showcase Doucet's own journey, from years spent in a male-dominated industry to her return to drawing and creating an alternate universe that foregrounds women.
The book is a poignant exploration of love, lust, and identity, with images pulled from past and present that reflect Doucet's diverse creative work over three decades. A powerful and personal work, Time Zone J offers a unique glimpse into the life and art of one of Canada's most respected cartoonists.
