Princess Mononoke meets Jack London in this gritty,
ecofeminist adventure.
Fleeing the fires of her war-torn homeland, a young woman travels
to the New World in search of gold to rebuild her life. In this strange,
lawless land, Joana encounters friends (the kind Native women Tala
and Opa), foes (the cruel gold hunter Matwei and his men), and an
unexpected traveling companion who may just be her good luck
charm - and amidst the icy reaches of the wilderness, a fearsome
fantastical beast lurks in the shadows.
The English debut of Spanish cartoonist and illustrator Núria
Tamarit, Daughters of Snow and Cinders conjures the awesome natural
beauty of the frozen north in vibrant color. A rugged adventure
story with two strong young women at its heart, this graphic novel
offers a poignant message about the urgent need for humanity to
overcome our greed and base impulses to be good stewards of the
world in which we live and depend on.
Núria Tamarit is an illustrator and comic artist based in Valencia. Her graphic world
is marked by fantastical elements, voluptuous plant forms, dreamy creatures, and
powerful female characters. Her previous books include Two Coins (Dos Monedas,
2019, winner of the first València Graphic Novel Award), Giantess (Géante, 2020, with
Jean-Christophe Deveney), and Season of the Witch (2020, with Matt Ralphs.
