The Trouble with Women by Jacky Fleming

We have long been fans of Jacky Fleming’s wonderful feminist cartoons. Her latest book, The Trouble with Women was inspired by watching a documentary about artistic geniuses — no women were featured. Fleming decided to research the topic of female geniuses and managed to fill eleven notebooks on the subject. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This might sound like quite a dry subject but crucially, all the cartoons that made it into ensuing book are very funny.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And some are even quite poignant.


 

 

 

 

 

This is a thoroughly recommended collection and a diverting gift for a friend.
