Following the Third World War, humankind left the toxic surface of the Earth and built an underground city to survive. A serious social problem has emerged in this new society: hyperorexia, or severe overeating, a side effect of the 'Pure Trance' life-sustaining pill. The story begins in a hospital which has been ruined by a tyrannical director, Keiko Yamazaki. The nurses who toil under Keiko's whip are regular girls, just like your friends and co-workers. Yet this is no soap opera! It is a dreamy science fiction fantasy - a twisted story of catfights, alien safari adventures, evil experimentation, and a girl in love with a pop idol singer.

(W/A) Herg? Tintin travels to China in The Blue Lotus, a tale which is generally considered Herge's first masterpiece. It's also Tintin's only foray into actual history, specifically the Sino-Japanese conflicts of the early 1930s. The political tensions combined with the chilling threats of drugs give the story an especially high and realistic sense of danger. Herge paints a vivid picture of China and takes the opportunity to denounce ethnic prejudices. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In 1920s Japan, failed novelist Hitomi bears an uncanny resemblance to the son of a rich industrialist. Hitomi learns of the rich man's sudden death and creates a desperate plan, successfully impersonating the now-dead son. Hitomi takes over all aspects of the industrialist's life, including his company, his fortune, and eventually his wife. There he redirects the family's wealth to his own perverse aims. On a remote and mysterious island, he builds for himself a playground of hedonistic excess - replete with decadent feasts, orgies, and dark secrets. Stunning artwork by master manga artist Suehiro Maruo deftly illustrates this Japanese pulp classic in lush detail. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Keiji Nakazawa Cartoonist Keiji Nakazawa was seven years old and living in Hiroshima in the early days of August 1945 when the city was destroyed by an atomic bomb. Starting a few months before that event, the ten-volume Barefoot Gen saga shows life in Japan after years of war and privations, as seen through the eyes of seven-year-old Gen Nakaoka. Gen has grown old enough to think about the legacy of the victims of the atomic bombing. Gen searches for a printer willing to publish an eyewitness account of the bombing written by 'Papa,' the journalist who serves as a father figure to Gen's war orphan friends. By hook and crook Gen and Ryuta manage to get the book printed and distributed, only to arouse the wrath of U.S. Army censors, who teach them a hard lesson about the politics of memory. Meanwhile, Gen's brother Koji returns home at last, only to find that their mother is on her deathbed. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
