This is a thread to talk about Dan Clowes' story "Gynecology."

I haven't read it in 20 years! Those dramatic pieces from the second half of Eightball were so massive in my mind back then, I haven't gone back to them. The real stories would be competing with my memory of them.

that's the Clowes I come back to most often. Favorite Clowes character, all-time best "icy distance between artist and reader". Flipping though my copy now I guess that's even the issue that introduced that turn of phrase(?) The specificity and humanity of those quick flashbacks at the beginning blew me away the first time I read it. I've never seen someone try to write about a person like that in the way he does in that story.
