Rachita Taneja is best known as the creator of Sanitary Panels, a series of webcomics that cast a critical eye on society, politics, and culture, especially in India. In her new book, Touching Grass (Bloomsbury India), Taneja brings a compilation of her best panels over the last 12 years, alongside several new ones. “I had been thinking about putting a book together for a long time. I finally got around to it,” she tells us. “I’ve been working on it since early last year.” This process included redrawing her older comics.
