Betty has breast cancer and faces the inevitable ablation. But, as bad things always happen in threes, she also loses her job and her boyfriend. What she doesn’t know is that things are about to get better! When she runs into a group of comedians, they invite her to join them and rebuild her life by presenting a sketch aimed at changing people’s attitudes to cancer.
First published in 2018 by Casterman, “Betty Boob” is an ode to life—at once spirited and dreamlike, inspiring and surprisingly funny. Mostly told without words, it is a story of loss and reconciliation.
