Anne Elizabeth Moore – författare

Threadbare presents the connections between the international sex and garment trades and human trafficking in a beautifully illustrated comic series. From the sweatshops of Cambodia to the traditional ateliers of Vienna, from the life of a globetrotting supermodel to the warehouses of large clothing retailers, from the second-hand clothing industry to the politics of the sex trade, Threadbare paints a concerning picture of human rights in a globalised world, as well as offering a practical guide to a growing problem few truly understand.

EISNER AWARD WINNER | Best Academic/Scholarly Work About Comics | 2019One of the most influential women in independent comics, Julie Doucet, receives a full-length critical overview from a noted chronicler of independent media and critical gender theorist. Grounded in a discussion of mid-1990s media and the discussion of women’s rights that fostered it, this book addresses longstanding questions about Doucet’s role as a feminist figure, master of the comics form, and object of masculine desire. Doucet’s work is hilarious, charming, thoughtful, brilliant, and challenging, even three decades on.Anne Elizabeth Moore is an award-winning journalist, bestselling comics anthologist, and internationally lauded cultural critic.
