Hierba by Keum Suk Gendry-Kim
Set against the backdrop of the Korean War, this poignant graphic novel delves into the harrowing experiences of a young girl who becomes a "comfort woman" for the Japanese army. Through evocative illustrations and a deeply personal narrative, the story captures her resilience and the enduring scars of wartime atrocities. As she navigates the complexities of survival, identity, and memory, the tale offers a powerful reflection on the impact of historical trauma and the strength found in sharing one's truth.
