Book Description
for Drawing from the City by Teju Behan
From the Publisher
"Self-taught artist Tejubehan weaves a partly autobiographical, partly escapist, whimsically illustrated tale of a woman trapped between unimaginable poverty and a wildly imaginative inner world in a patriarchal society." - Maria Popova for the New York Public Library bookstore
"...more exquisite and born out of a more moving personal story than just about any book I've come across." Brainpickings.org
"Perfect for anyone interested in printmaking, and would make an extra-special gift for the budding feminist in your family." Nashville Scene
A large-format, silk-screened, hand-printed masterpiece. A Los Angeles Times Holiday Gift Pick.
