Discover the stunning graphic novel from the Costa Award-winning authors of Dotter of her Father’s Eyes.
Sally Heathcote: Suffragette is a gripping inside story of the campaign for votes for women. A tale of loyalty, love and courage, set against a vividly realised backdrop of Edwardian Britain, it follows the fortunes of a maid-of-all-work swept up in the feminist militancy of the era. Sally Heathcote: Suffragette is another stunning collaboration from Costa Award winners, Mary and Bryan Talbot. Teamed up with acclaimed illustrator Kate Charlesworth, Sally Heathcote’s lavish pages bring history to life.

What a great graphic novel: an important true story with all the history in there as well as enough personal detail to keep me really interested. I found I got more and more absorbed in it as it went on. Some of the scenes are quite brutal and are conveyed perfectly with the combination of the precise writing, the drawings and the minimal use of colour.
