520    Flung Out of Space is both a love letter to the essential 
       lesbian novel, The Price of Salt, and an examination of 
       its notorious author, Patricia Highsmith. Veteran comics 
       creators Grace Ellis and Hannah Templer have teamed up to 
       tell this story through Highsmith?s eyes?reimagining the 
       events that inspired her to write the story that would 
       become a foundational piece of queer literature. Flung Out
       of Space opens with Pat begrudgingly writing low-brow 
       comics. A drinker, a smoker, and a hater of life, Pat 
       knows she can do better. Her brain churns with images of 
       the great novel she could and should be writing?what will 
       eventually be Strangers on a Train? which would later be 
       adapted into a classic film by Alfred Hitchcock in 
       1951.00At the same time, Pat, a lesbian consumed with self
       -loathing, is in and out of conversion therapy, leaving a 
       trail of sexual conquests and broken hearts in her wake. 
       However, one of those very affairs and a chance encounter 
       in a department store give Pat the idea for her soon-to-be
       beloved tale of homosexual love that was the first of its 
       kind?it gave the lesbian protagonists a happy 
       ending.00This is not just the story behind a classic queer
       book, but of a queer artist who was deeply flawed. It?s a 
       comic about what it was like to write comics in the 1950s,
       but also about what it means to be a writer at any time in
       history, struggling to find your voice
