With Wonder Woman currently blowing up the box office, it’s a good time for stories about young women learning how to fight for themselves in a society that doesn’t want them to reach their full potential. That’s a major aspect of Knife’s Edge, the second installment in writer Hope Larson and artist Rebecca Mock’s Four Points series of graphic novels from Farrar, Straus, and Giroux. The first book, Compass South, was a thrilling start to the story of 12-year-old twins in 1860 that get swept up on an international treasure hunt, and now, after reuniting with their long-missing father, the twins are embarking on the next stage of their adventure as a complete family. Hope Larson has crafted a narrative rooted in complex emotional bonds, anchored by the experience of Cleo, the female twin who impersonates a boy for most of Compass South. Getting a taste of a boy’s life liberates Cleo and inspires her to break through the limitations placed on her by society, but now that the impersonation is over, Cleo is expected to return to her complacent state.
