A review by thura
Palestine by Joe Sacco

medium-paced

4.0

Obviously incredible comics-journalism. Good introduction for anyone looking to learn right now. Emotional, vivid, challenging.

At times outdated, with sexist and racist undertones especially in its narrations of Palestinian women and militant resistance. Sacco’s voice is highly present and often threw me off, because my reactions to described experiences were very different from his then. 

The story I keep thinking about is Ansar III.
