Roz Chast is known for turning everyday anxieties into sharply funny, unmistakably personal cartoons. She has been one of the most influential cartoonists of her generation, earning many honors including the Reuben Award from the National Cartoonists Society in 2015 as well as National Humanities Medal from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 2024. Her 2014 memoir, Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant? Is a bittersweet account of caring for her aging parents. It became a critical and commercial success, winning major awards and becoming the first graphic novel to be named a nonfiction finalist for the National Book Award. It also won the 2014 National Book Critics Circle Award for Autobiography, as well as many other awards.
