—MK Czerwiec, author of Taking Turns: Stories from HIV/AIDS Care Unit 371

Above all, they highlight the power of art and community to help us make sense of a world in crisis, reminding us that we are truly all in this together.

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.
