Voices from the Middle East on the fight for self-determination.

Much of the present discourse about the pro-democracy Arab uprisings of 2011 paints a bleak picture of their defeat. But the truth is more complicated, and moments of struggle and inspiration still recur despite the overwhelming odds against the movements success.

This collection of short comics documents the political and social unrest in the Middle East during the 2010s, in such places as Lebanon, Egypt, Yemen, Palestine, Sudan, and Bahrain. A collaboration between writer and journalist Yazan Al-Saadi and a lineup of stellar cartoonists from the regionTracy Chahwan, Ganzeer, Ghadi Ghosn, Omar Khouri, Sirčne Moukheiber, Hicham Rahma, and Enas Satirthis graphic reportage serves as a witness to an era of counterrevolutionary resurgence in which entrenched powers clashed with the peoples struggle for self-determination.

Recenzijas

An exciting, informative collection of graphic journalism.

Peter Dabbene Foreword Reviews This book is brave. . . . The reader will feel compelled to learn more.

Jane Burns Graphic Medicine Its vital, cutting journalism exploring and explaining so many topics weve been told are out of intellectual reach. Purely on the level of comics experiment, its invigorating to find such a well assembled anthology of differing art styles, all glued together by Al-Saadis narration and the purpose of the work.

Comic Book Herald Visceral, humorous, and ultimately triumphant, each dispatch (comic) delivers something unique and memorable.

Daniel Bokemper World Literature Today A chronicle for the ages.

Frank Plowright The Slings & Arrows Its vital, cutting journalism exploring and explaining so many topics weve been told are out of intellectual reach.

Comic Book Herald Al-Saadis stories of human struggle and unfinished uprisings are masterfully drawn by the best comic artists from Lebanon, Sudan, and Egypt. This is comics journalism you cannot turn away fromvisually stunning, urgent, and devastating.

Andy Warner, author of Brief Histories of Everyday Objects and Spring Rain A searing and insightful look into political life in the Middle East told through uniquely moving comics. This is an essential book for anyone who wants to learn about the world.
