Join cartoonist and activist Kate Evans as she discusses the power of comics to convey political and social issues. Kate will be discussing her latest book, Red Rosa (Verso Books), as well as the way in which her own politics and passions inform her work.

Kate Evans is the author of the bestselling The Food of Love – a fresh, funny and refreshingly different guide to breastfeeding. Packed with hilarious and stylish graphics, it is perfect for new mothers and is a perennial favourite with breastfeeding counsellors and midwives. Her latest book with Myriad is Bump: How to make, birth and grow a baby, in which she applies her no-nonsense, quirky and laugh-out-loud cartoons to demystify the complexities of pregnancy and birth.

Kate’s new book, Red Rosa, is a graphic biography of Polish left-wing political activist Rosa Luxemburg. Copies of all Kate’s books will be for sale at this free event. For ticket information please visit the Waterstones website.
