Ningen Karimenchu

A manga memoir about Taeko Uzuki’s life.

This is the most powerful and raw autobiographical manga I’ve ever read. I actually put this above My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness. Uzuki has had a life full of hardship but also full of love. Her struggles with schizophrenia and suicide only make her story stronger and full of hope. I was moved after finishing this series and will now forever be a fan of hers.

100% recommended.
