Laughably long-limbed and gangly, their bodies refuse to conform with societal norms of delicate femininity, and the trauma of being different ripples across generations. And yet, there may be a blessing to their burden; like the mighty mountains surrounding their town, they find that there is resilience and strength to be gained from their heightened perspective. Drawn with delightful exaggeration and formal inventiveness, \u003ci\u003eAnna\u003c\/i\u003e is a tongue-in-cheek, modern-day fairy tale about being “too big” for a narrow-minded world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMia Oberländer\u003c\/b\u003e (b. 1995, Ulm) is an illustrator and cartoonist based in Hamburg.
