ethnoGRAPHIC

This groundbreaking series realizes ethnographic research in graphic novel form. The series speaks to a growing interest in comics as a powerful narrative medium and to the desire for a more creative and collaborative anthropology that engages with the public on contemporary issues. Books in the series are informed by scholarship and combine text and images in ways that are accessible, open-ended, aesthetically rich, and that foster greater cross-cultural understanding.

Series Editors: Sherine Hamdy (University of California, Irvine) and Marc Parenteau (cartoonist)
