It looks like a Wanted lady has some very good things to say about First Second.
Angelina Jolie, who has starred in roles varying from the Fox in Wanted to mother Christine Collins in the J. Michael Straczynski-penned film Changling, has given a rousing endorsement of First Second’s book, the Photographer, which follows the crew from Doctors Without Borders in the heart of war-torn Afghanistan.
“An unflinching and gripping photographic memoir, The Photographer takes you on a breathtaking journey through the best and worst humanity has to offer in times of war,” she said. “Turning its pages, the reader begins to understand what it means to lose everything as a refugee of war, to cross mountains to help someone you never met, to feel the intense responsibility of being the only one able to capture the last moments of a child’s stolen life. Suddenly Afghanistan, a distant land, a foreign culture, a courageous and resilient people seem closer, more familiar—more human. I love this book.”
A pretty cool coup for First Second, considering it comes from Forbes’ #1 most powerful celebrity. You can learn more about the book here.
