A wonderful retelling of the famous anarchis and radical icon Emma Goldman's extraordinary life, this graphic biography embodies the richness and drama of Goldman's story in a wholly original way. Goldman was at the forefront of the radical causes of the 20th century, from leading hunger demonstrations during the Great Depression to lecturing on how to use birth control to fighting conscription for WW1, while her soulmate, Alexander Berkman, spent 14 years in jail for his failed attentat against industrialist Henry Clay Frick.
