With acidic humour, true stories and brutal honesty, Anna Härmälä explores the ups and downs of single motherhood in this colourful, irreverent graphic novel.
After being dumped, Mia is officially a single mother. Just when she thinks the dust has settled from her breakup, she's thrust into a confusing whirlwind of slightly useless friendships, exhaustion, therapy, cathartic playgroup daydreaming sessions, and eventually, the terrifying world of online dating. Anna Härmälä's semi-autobiographical comic vignettes offer a candid (and often hilarious) portrayal of the ups and downs of single parenthood as she discovers how to piece herself back together while raising a tiny human alone on very little sleep.

Anna Härmälä grew up in Vantaa near Helsinki and always knew she was going to work in the arts. Her parents encouraged her interest by allowing her to try out theatre and arts clubs. Later she studied art and visual communication in Finland and Norway, and she has an MA from Bergen Academy of Art and Design. She has also written and illustrated several picture books published in Finland and Sweden, and has been head of her school's art department for more than ten years. She started sharing her comics online to see if they resonated with the experience of other single mothers, but this is her first graphic novel.
