Template:Short description Template:Infobox book Sally Heathcote: Suffragette is a 2014 graphic novel about a fictional suffragette by Mary M. Talbot, Kate Charlesworth and Bryan Talbot.[1] In 2015, it was included in a list of the "top 10 books about revolutionaries" published by The Guardian.[2]
Background
Mary M. Talbot and her husband, Bryan Talbot, previously collaborated on the 2012 graphic novel Dotter of Her Father's Eyes. Mary began writing Sally Heathcote: Suffragette as soon as they finished their previous work. Because Bryan was busy working on his graphic novel series Grandville, they brought on Kate Charlesworth to assist with illustrations.[3]
Reception
In a review for The Guardian, James Smart described the book as a "potent mix of hope and brutality" and praised its illustrations.[4] Yo Zushi of the New Statesman felt that it had too much text relative to the images, and that Sally as a fictional character was not as compelling as the historical figures in the book.[5]
