"I was born in 1960, which is pretty much when, as a culture, we started exercising." Cartoonist and memoirist Alison Bechdel talks with Zibby about her latest book and the ways in which exercising has both reflected and shaped the stages of her life, from adopting new routines based on cultural trends to analyzing how exercise intersects with mortality. She touches on her family trauma and how that impacted her illustrations. Purchase the book on Amazon or Bookshop:Amazon: https://amzn.to/3aF9oULBookshop: https://bit.ly/3aIB23q Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
