Class : A Graphic Guide
by Laura Harvey, Sarah Leaney
informative
fast-paced
I really enjoyed this graphic novel. It provides an in-depth but also quite accessible overview to theories and terminology around class. As an academic and a teacher, I think this book is brilliant for any adult reader. It covers global and intersectional issues related to class.
It features a number of thinkers from different global communities around the world. There are a lot of people and approaches to class that were not represented in my education present in this book. I appreciated the different ways in which text and information were laid out. There are some slightly unfortunate differences in the size of people being represented which is supposed to communicate power but sometimes felt a little bit uncomfortable to me with the intersections that I hold. However, I would not hold that against it.. I have already bought a copy for my library. I have bought a copy for my office and I will definitely signpost it in my classes.
