> 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.
