Reseña del libro "Billie Holiday: Women in Jazz (Graphic Biography) (en Inglés)"

Dive into the celebrated life of &;Lady Day&; with this fully-illustrated graphic novel that tells the story of Billie Holiday&;s rapid&;and, at times, grueling&;rise to become one of the best musicians who ever lived.From her days as a young entertainer performing for small jazz clubs in Harlem, to headlining sold-out shows at Carnegie Hall, every trouble and triumph of Billie Holiday's bold, influential career is featured in this graphic novel from Fantoons. Throughout the book&;s 144 pages of dazzling color illustrations, readers will revisit Billie&;s peak years as she helped lead the transition from the Harlem Renaissance to the iconic Swing Era alongside some of the top names in jazz&;including Artie Shaw, Lester Young, and Count Basie. Meanwhile, readers will learn the true history behind the making and recording of some of Billie&;s most-classic hits, like &;God Bless the Child,&; and &;Strange Fruit,&; the latter of which is considered to be the first protest song of the civil rights era. Widely recognized as one of the greatest jazz singers of all time, Billie&;s emotive voice, distinct phrasing, and flawless technique cemented her place as an American icon. Now, new and longtime fans alike have the opportunity to learn more about Lady Day&;s short but spectacular life. At a time when the country is struggling with issues involving identity and race, this graphic novel provides a timely look into the fascinating life of a fighter, survivor, and world-renowned artist.
