Informative, accessible, and refreshingly less US-centric than similar introductions to feminism, though it would've been better to consider feminism beyond the US and Europe as well. The translation could've been smoother and other graphic novels introducing academic topics that I have read have a more engaging balance of text to illustration.

Informative, however the history is limited to Europe.

I liked the fact that it was brief and illustrated. But in my opinion it could have focused more on the importance of women of colour who did a lot for the feminist movement in the second wave. It was too brief at points.

3.5 Stars. A good introduction to feminist literature, with a main focus on Western feminism. Short, but interesting graphic novel. The translation wasn’t great though and some of the illustrations were confusing, but overall I enjoyed it and found it quite entertaining.

this is a great book for people that wants to start learning about feminism. the informations are simple and objective, the method of writing is easy to read and the drawings are pretty. its also a great reading for those who already studies feminism bc it talks about Feminist movements throughout history and countries.
