The haunting testimony of Holocaust survivor Emmie Arbel: arrested, deported, and imprisoned at the age of five, and of the inspirational life she built in its aftermath Arrested with her family in her native Holland, deported, held in a series of Nazi concentration camps, and orphanedall by the age of sevenEmmie Arbel transformed her childhood survival into a lifelong mission to stand against any such other horrors. With her home now in Israel, to where she and her brother emigrated with their foster parents in the wake of the Holocaust, she still frequently travels abroad to report and record her testimony. Working closely with Arbel herself, the acclaimed German graphic artist Barbara Yelin has created a brilliant portraitwhat she calls a visual biographyof this remarkable woman: her rebellious spirit, her resilient humor, the seriousness of her contemplation. Surviving is not over, she reflects. Surviving is every day. Emmie Arbel: The Colour of Memory is at once a haunting portrayal of a historical atrocity; an inspiring account of a modern friendship; a beautiful work of art; and a meditation on memory itself. Because, as Yelin has put it, The long arms of history wrap right around the present. Autorid: Barbara Yelin, Charlotte Schallié, Alexander Korb, Helge R. Dascher

A portrait of the world-famous Dutch artist Piet Mondrian in his twilight years in exile, as he traveled from Paris to London to New York to flee the rise of fascism in Europe Everyone will recognize the work of Piet Mondrian (1872-1944), the Dutch painter who divided the world into geometric patterns of primary colors organized within rigidly straight black lines. But who remembers his great love of music and dance or his eccentric devotion to an art of balance and harmony as a blueprint for a better world? Until his dying day, Mondrian never gave up his quest to bring light and color into the darkening shadows of the 20th century. InMondrian: A Better World, Mondrian's fellow countryman Erik de Graaf traces the last 11 years of his life--as both an exile from war and an increasingly acclaimed visionary modernist--following him from Paris to London and New York as the rise of fascism threatens to engulf the ideal world of which he constantly dreamed.

A graphic novel exploring the right to protest, told by people who raised their voices and demanded to be heard Its about what ordinary people do, because what we do . . . is quite extraordinary. Protest matters, and never more so than todayand yet our rights around dissent have been eroded in law. Noisy Valley is a beautifully illustrated work of graphic nonfiction exploring the importance of protest and what it can achieve, through the voices of one vibrant community. In every neighborhood, there are the activists, the ones who raise their voices. Myfanwy Tristram visited the Rhondda Valley in South Wales, inviting local people to recount their memories of the times theyd refused to take things lying down. The Noisy Valley is the result: a graphic retelling of protests both past and present. The area is best known for the miners strikes of the 80s, (and their support from the LGBT movement as documented in the film Pride) but the spirit of dissent runs deeply whenever there is injustice. These stories tell how communities and individuals pushed back on a landfill site that poisoned local streams, a waste-processing plant that destroyed an area of natural beauty, sexism in the workplace and the closure of the local hospital. We dip into the historic Aldermaston marches and the Greenham womens peace camp, too. The Noisy Valley is a testament to protestors whowhatever the changes in the lawhave believed in their power to get things changed. Autorid: Myfanwy Tristram
