Reviews

"""Voices from Nepal is a must-read for anyone interested in graphic journalism, advocacy work, or human trafficking. This book not only sheds light on the important issue of human trafficking in Nepal, but also showcases the power of visual storytelling as a tool for advocacy and raising awareness. Whether you are a budding graphic journalist or simply passionate about social justice issues, this book will inspire and educate you.""--Cecilia Hyunjung Mo, Judith E. Gruber Associate Professor of Political Science, University of California, Berkeley ""Dan Archer shows us the human face of trafficking - shattering misconceptions, fostering empathy for the survivors, and igniting a call to action. Through vivid sketches and beautifully rendered watercolor stories, he transports readers to the bustling streets of Kathmandu and the dusty fields of rural Nepal. The book is both a testament to the power of comics journalism and an immersive travelogue.""--Josh Neufeld, New York Times bestselling author of AD: New Orleans After the Deluge ""Dan Archer is not only a leading practitioner of graphic journalism but also one of the field's pioneers. In his assured hands, pen and ink bring us the voices from Nepal in registers that traditional reporting often miss.""--James Sturm, cofounder of The Center for Cartoon Studies ""Voices from Nepal is both a searing account of the many forms of human trafficking and a model for ethical documentation practices. Archer not only shows the stories of survivors, he shows how to compassionately and truthfully account for human rights violations without retraumatizing or exploiting the humans behind these stories. Voices from Nepal is an urgent work that dispels common myths about trafficking while unblinkingly rendering its human costs.""--Katherine Kelp-Stebbins, author of How Comics Travel and curator of The Art of the News: Comics Journalism ""This book is a testament to Dan Archer's incredible dedication and commitment to truth and information via graphic storytelling and journalism.""--Nick Abadzis, Eisner award-winning writer of Laika"
