review:
'A Little Piece of Her' by Zidrou with art by Raphael Beuchot is a daring graphic novel about a subject I didn't think I'd ever run across.
Yu Kiang is Chinese and works for a lumber company in the Congo. He is in love with Antoinette and this is a problem since he can be deported by his company. Then the story takes a pretty sharp twist as Yu Kiang discovers that Antoinette is a victim of female genital mutilation. He seeks to stop this from happening to Antoinette's young daughter, Marie Leontine, but will he be able to do anything in time?
This is a very rough subject, and a very serious one for a graphic novel to take on. There are a few articles in the back to further education. The art is also pretty good in this one.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
