RUTU MODAN, one of Israel's best-known cartoonists, was born in Tel Aviv in 1966. She is most recognized in North America for her graphic novel Exit Wounds, and currently lives in England with her family.

"The real glory of "Exit Wounds "is Modan's artwork. Her characters' body language and facial expressions, rendered in the gestural 'clear line' style of Herge's Tintin books, are so precisely observed, they practically tell the story by themselves." "--The New York Times Book Review

""Modan's spare, affecting lines and charged dialogue add up to a tragicomic take on family and identity . . . Grade A-" "--The Washington Post"
