Enemies of the State is a monthly book club podcast featuring a rotating cast of comics critics. After a long hiatus, we’re back, and this month we’re talking about Nagata Kabi’s MY SOLO EXCHANGE DIARY volumes 1 & 2, published in 2018 and 2019 by Seven Seas Manga. Nagata Kabi is the author of a series of autobiographical manga that started with the very successful release of MY LESBIAN EXPERIENCE WITH LONELINESS. A harrowing personal journey to self-acceptance and self-love, Nagata Kabi attempts to show readers that happiness isn’t a place you can get to; rather, it’s a journey you’re always on.
