Echoes of October

"Echoes of October" is a powerful and poignant graphic novel crafted in the evocative style of the legendary Will Eisner. This narrative intertwines the lives of four children, each grappling with the loss of a parent in the harrowing October 7 Israeli massacre by Hamas. The four children each come from very different worlds: Gaza City, Toronto, Tel Aviv, and Daliyat al-Karmel.

Led by creators from the region itself and in consultation with the communities represented by the children in the story—Israeli, Palestinian, Druze, and Canadian. All to ensure that the voices and experiences shared are authentic and deeply rooted in the lived realities of those most affected. 

While everything that happens in the book is true, the characters are not.
