Nelly Blai-Liga Sensation. Chimino L.

It is safe to say that this outstanding American journalist was ahead of his time. She held two most important investigations that changed the law, fought with sexism at the workplace, was deported from Mexico by a dictator for her bold and honest work, turned her husband’s enterprise into one of the most profitable in the country and even managed to go around the world in less than 80 Days! Nelly Blya was born in 1864, when it was believed in society that the inheritance of a woman was to give birth to children, to engage in a house and obey her husband's will. Only a woman of a rare nature and determination could be free from these restrictions and fulfill her dreams. And few people succeeded with the same success as Nelly Blya. Her life is an example of perseverance and real courage. Luchan Chimino and Sergio Algoztsino were able to tell the story of Nelly Bly in the genre of the graphic novel so that we saw all the facets of her life - not only victories and joy, but the pain and difficulties that she faced. The author and illustrator accurately transmitted this struggle of a person and time, so that on the pages of the book we see a woman who would never put up with obstacles and external circumstances. This story will necessarily inspire girls forever become the mistresses of their own fate.
