Equal
parts beautiful and disturbing, The Animal's Vegan Manifesto draws
heavily from Orwell's Animal Farm in a tale of animal and human
liberation over 115 intricate, painstaking woodcuts. Sue says she
grew up next to a slaughterhouse in Liverpool, which informed her
work and inspired her veganism. That her creative process is so
scrupulous, but subject matter often so often distressing, makes this
book a labour of much devotion from a committed animal rights
activist. Each panel is carved from the wood of wild cherry in a
cacophony of different voices, which reach a joyful conclusion. The
Animals' Vegan Manifesto keeps drawing you back to revisit its
sometimes outstanding beauty.
