Let Me Be Frank brings Sarah Laing's popular autobiographical comic series together for the first time. Sarah Laing began blogging her comics in 2009 as a way to shed light on her fiction writing and to record life before it evaporated. The comics soon had a large audience, eager for the next installment about Sarah's parenting fails and successes, writing, her obsession with Katherine Mansfield, her family's history, pet mice, sex, clothes, and more.
