Mac's Book Club will discuss My Friend Dahmer by Derf.
You only think you know this story. In 1991\, Jeffrey Dahmer—the most notorious serial killer since Jack the Ripper—seared himself into the American consciousness. To the public\, Dahmer was a monster who committed unthinkable atrocities. To Derf Backderf\, “Jeff” was a much more complex figure\: a high school friend with whom he had shared classrooms\, hallways\, and car rides. In My Friend Dahmer\, a haunting and original graphic novel\, writer-artist Backderf creates a surprisingly sympathetic portrait of a disturbed young man struggling against the morbid urges emanating from the deep recesses of his psyche—a shy kid\, a teenage alcoholic\, and a goofball who never quite fit in with his classmates. With profound insight\, what emerges is a Jeffrey Dahmer that few ever really knew\, and one readers will never forget.
