Other Russias Victoria Lomasko

Other Russias is the brilliant first collection of graphic journalism
by artist and activist Victoria Lomasko. A fixture at Moscow’s
protests and political trials, Lomasko illuminates the inequality
and injustice at the heart of contemporary Russian society and
gives voice to Russia’s many voiceless citizens. Not content to
remain in the capital, she travels the country, visiting schools in
dying villages; interviewing sex workers in foundering industrial towns; teaching children at juvenile prisons to draw, all while
drawing their stories. Her portraits allow readers to see these
people as more than words on paper and to see them as she does:
with dignity, compassion, and love. Other Russias is an urgent and
poignant work by a major talent.
