Dallas Voice's LGBTQ Pride Reading List for 2024

"Visually arresting . . . Corman's story inhabits the comics medium so fully that its formal ingenuity may not be immediately apparent . . . A moving map of war and genocide's labyrinthine consequences for survivors across generations."
--The Washington Post

"The finest work yet from an always formidable artist, this is a revelatory meditation on the cost of survival."
--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"When Leela Corman sets out to make a graphic novel, she makes a graphic novel built to win awards. . . . fascinating work from an incredible talent."
--Comic Book Herald, "Favorite Graphic Novels of 2024"

"A demanding, unsettling, at times celebratory, and provocative story."
--Gay League

"Corman's figures are striking...Vivid watercolors enhance the uncanny atmosphere, hues spilling and pooling into visceral shapes and strata...Savage and soulful."
--Kirkus, starred review

"A stun­ning sto­ry that demon­strates the ways in which Holo­caust trauma's reach in Amer­i­ca frac­tures those it touches."
--The Jewish Book Council

"Fill[s] a void in the public's concerning lack of awareness on the [Holocaust]."
--Dallas Voice

"Striking . . . with Victory Parade, she wants us to remember what tyrannical supremacy and the murderous maligning of the racial Other actually mean - and warns us against going on with our lives as though nothing were amiss while the humanity of others is being denied."
--International Journal of Comic Art

"This is art at an intense level, of a most captivating nature. The intent is to provoke. No middle ground to this. And the results are extraordinary . . .Victory Parade . . . will take you on an unforgettable journey."
--Comics Grinder

"Victory Parade paints a deeply affecting portrait of how individuals and civilizations process mass trauma."
--Gay League
