Fruit of Knowledge: The Vulva vs. The Patriarchy has hit America's shores! Coming to us from Sweden and employing a merciless onslaught of comics rhetoric, Liv Strömquist storms the patriarchal fortress with weapons readily at hand (including satire, sarcasm, synecdoche and more – all leavened with a healthy sense of humor). Her concise, visually and verbally witty comics puncture many a myth and will have you rolling your eyes again and again at the ludicrous nature of so much of what was taken as "a given" (by men) regarding women.
Remember, not all Vikings were men. You have been warned.

Her concise, visually and verbally witty comics take readers on a guided tour through a history of the primarily patriarchal views of western civilization regarding female sexuality, and along the way puncture many a myth. These comics will have you rolling your eyes again and again at the ludicrous nature of so much of what was taken as "a given" (by men) regarding women.
