Disappearance Diary Jenn St-Onge Black is Beautiful *Slightly smallerBy Hideo Azuma. Published by Fanfare Ponent Mon. Softcover, 200 pages, B&W, 2008 (originally published in Japanese in 2005) In 1989 Hideo Azuma left his family and work and tried (unsuccessfully) to hang himself using the slope of a mountain. This autobiographical account of his slide into alcoholism and eventual recovery takes painful experiences from the darkest reaches of his mind and treats them with an overriding sense of a cartoonist's humor.
