Kim: A Novel Idea is a graphic literary novel that tells the story of Frankie, a lonely millennial, her boyfriend Jacob, their talking cat Catman, and their unhealthy obsession with Kim Kardashian. Faced with the difficulties of her life, Frankie copes through fantasy and escape, exploring politics, feminism, the #MeToo movement, fame, abuse of power within university writing programs, intergenerational wealth, love, and our multiple selves. Her insufferable attitude towards life and self-doubt in convincing herself she's "never going to make anything of my goddamn, pathetic life" is relatable, as she is stuck in a capitalist cycle of celebrity marketing rings that target young women's insecurities about their bodies and accomplishments. The novel asks whether digital identities are the cure or the poison to waking life and what the value is in distracting ourselves from our own lives.
