Description
Sunday's Child is a powerful and moving graphic novel that challenges the traditional narrative of its subject's life. Serena Katt's grandfather, known as Opa, was one of the lucky ones who survived World War II, but his story is not without controversy. Opa's account of his childhood and teenage years has been passed down through the family, but it is a story of prizes won and boyish adventures that leaves many questions unanswered. In this book, Katt sets out to interrogate her grandfather's version of events, revealing a more complex and nuanced history than previously thought. Through her superb drawing and eloquent storytelling, Katt brings Opa's story to life in a way that is both moving and thought-provoking. This debut graphic novel marks an important contribution to the genre, shedding new light on a pivotal moment in history.
