My only complaint with this book is that the text is difficult to read in some of the pieces. I am still rating it as a 5 because I think that issue is reflective of my visual disability and not shortcomings on any of the artists' parts. ( ) I think I first was introduced to Deer Woman through Louise Erdrich's [b:The Antelope Wife|790394|The Antelope Wife|Louise Erdrich|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1347236004s/790394.jpg|776379], and after this, I am so solidly a fan of Deer Woman. Powerful short stories here--I was brought to tears by a few. I want more. "One in three Native women are sexually assaulted in their lifetimes. Let that resonate." - the first two sentences of the Publisher Introduction In this book “...is a group of powerful Indigenous women sharing their power with others. These stories are medicine.” And the stories herein are very powerful with amazing, beautiful artwork! I was blown away by every one of them. I hope everyone gets a chance to read this graphic novel! “And in the end, we always return to ourselves...” I generally prefer more polished work, but the rawness to the pieces in this anthology help communicate the primal anger and righteous outrage over the treatment of Native American women. It is important that a book like this exists, and I hope to see more like it in the future. I do wish that a book that sports five editors and assistant editors would have had better proofreading though. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
