What graphic novels from the last decade fuse memoir, surreal imagery and art?

[Savannah24]

I'm trying to get more into graphic novels beyond the mainstream superhero titles, and I'm looking for recommendations with strong literary merit and unique artistic styles. I recently read and loved works that blend memoir with surreal imagery, and I'm interested in finding more that use the medium in innovative ways to tell personal or historical stories. For seasoned readers, what are some essential graphic novels from the last decade that you consider masterpieces of the form, where the art and narrative are inseparable and the story couldn't be told as effectively in any other medium?
