I am the author of Feminist Fables for the Twenty-First Century (McFarland 2015), with a foreword by Trina Robbins. This compendium of fables in visual form features women negotiating different types of gender-based violence and inequity in various cultures worldwide. Five graphic narratives expose such issues as femicide, child molestation and female genital mutilation without defining the affected women and girls by their unfortunate circumstances.
