(W) Jean Regnaud (A) Emile Bravo Jean relates his daily life and adventures with his sour-tempered teacher Madame Moinot, his busy dad, his kind nanny Yvette (the Queen of iced chocolate), his little brother Paul (with whom he is always fighting), and his precocious and spiteful neighbor Michele (whose parents own a kennel), telling them all those small and amusing things that appear to make him a normal boy. But inside there is a great emptiness and a voice calling 'Where is my mommy...?' as his only maternal contact is through a series of fanciful postcards read to him by the girl next door! With sensitivity and emotion, Regnaud and Eisner nominated Bravo (Best Short Story 2008) tell their story that reminds us that children are not the only ones who would rather invent than deal with reality. Winner of Essentials Award at the Angouleme Festival, 2008. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W) Natsuo Sekigawa (A) Jiro Taniguchi The Meiji era (1868-1912) was one of Japanese history's defining periods, a time of massive change from the more traditional Tokugawa era to a positioning of Japan in the modern world. Contemporary writer, Soseki Natsume, suffered due to all the social and cultural changes, and expressed his feelings through his character Botchan. Sekigawa explores the period through an adult point-of-view, and Taniguchi's art portrays the material with exquisite and elegant detail. Presented in traditional Japanese format reading.

(W/A) Willy Linthout It had been a normal morning in the Germonprez household. Carl reading the newspaper, Simone tackling some morning chores, and their son, Jack - 'Your son has jumped off the roof!' Carl, in an emotional haze, heads off to work only to discover, on the sidewalk outside their home, a chalk outline where there had been a son. No parent should have to bury a child, especially through suicide. Linthout draws an almost tangible pain with his immediate, rudimentary art and strong script which comes from personal experience. Winner of the Belgian Cultural Prize. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W) Natuo Sekikawa (A) Jiro Taniguchi The Meiji Period (1867-1912) were important, formative years of modern Japan. Contemporary author Soseki Natsume wrote of his experiences in this fast-changing world, in the mold of Charles Dickens or Mark Twain. The Times of Botchan is a fictionalised account of Natsume and his circle of poets and writers as they intersect with events and famous characters of the time. The story focuses on the relationship between Army Medical Officer and poet, (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
