Anne Bonny #[nn]

The cover puts you right on the pitching deck of a tall ship, looking down at a red-haired, wide-eyed Anne Bonny as she grips the rigging and strides forward with unmistakable energy — a ragged crew of sailors scattered across the planks around her. Alessandro Ranghiasci and Matteo Mastragostino bring the Golden Age of piracy roaring to life in this 2023 French-language volume from La Boîte à Bulles, with a dynamic, steeply angled composition that immediately communicates freedom, chaos, and adventure in equal measure. If you've ever wanted to see one of history's most daring pirates rendered with warmth and visual flair, this one deserves a spot on your shelf.
