  1. 1. We Are On Our Own

    A spare, visually striking graphic memoir that follows a Jewish mother and her young daughter as they navigate the dangers of wartime Budapest, fleeing persecution and relying on each other through hiding, hardship, and small acts of courage; the black-and-white artwork and intimate scenes probe memory, survival, and the emotional legacy of trauma in a tightly focused, deeply personal account.
