[Comicsstudiessociety] Book for review for IJOCA: Gender and Sexuality in Israeli Graphic Novels [CANADA preferred]

[Mike Rhode]

 We've been offered a copy for review, mailed from Canada, so we're going
to open it up to Canadians first to save on postage, and then go to the USA
if we don't get a reviewer. First to write in to me directly, as usual.

Book Description

This book explores how Israeli graphic novelists present depictions of
masculinity and femininity that differ from conventional portrayals of
gender in Israeli society, rejecting the ways that hypermasculinity and
docile femininity have come to be associated with men and women.

The book is the first to explore Israeli graphic novels through the lens of
gender. It argues that breaking down existing gender delineations with
regards to masculinity and femininity is a core feature of the Israeli
graphic novel and comics tradition and that through their works, the
authors and artists use their platforms to present a freer and looser
conceptualization of gender for Israeli society. Undertaking close readings
of Israeli graphic novels that have been published in English and/or Hebrew
in the last 20 years, the book’s texts include Rutu Modan’s *Exit Wounds*
and *The Property*, Ari Folman and David Polonsky’s *Waltz with Bashir*, Galit
and Gilad Seliktar’s *Farm 54*, and Asaf Hanuka’s "The Realist".

This book is of interest to students and scholars in comics studies, Israel
Studies, Jewish Studies, and Gender Studies.
