“Henley, creator of the long-running weekly comic strip Maxine, recounts in this fearless and lyrical graphic memoir her decision to tell her adopted son, William, about her history as a sexual assault victim… Henley’s loose, quivering linework is acrobatic; simple, understated panels periodically give way to a vividly rendered memory or a fiercely expressive face. The pain in her story is braced by her hope, elegantly expressed, that sharing it can make a difference, and her lithe art makes a difficult topic approachable. This joins the ranks of works like Diane Noomin’s Drawing Power that raise awareness of sexual violence through the immediacy of comics memoir." (Publishers Weekly)

"Finding the Light is a remarkable book about trauma, resilience, motherhood, and ultimately, honesty. I read it in one sitting, then immediately read it again. Marian’s book will resonate with survivors, but also with parents, children, and anyone that loves deep, funny, and wise storytelling." (Wendi Aarons, author of "I'm Wearing Tunics Now")
