LAST GASP

beautiful new hardcover edition of Barefoot Gen Volume Eight! Striking new design with special sturdy binding. Barefoot Gen is the powerful, tragic, autobiographical story of the bombing of Hiroshima and its aftermath, seen through the eyes of the artist as a young boy growing up in Japan. The honest portrayal of emotions and experiences speaks to children and adults everywhere. Nakazawa's manga illustrates the true impact of nuclear weapons when used against a civilian population. It is vital reading for people of all ages, and especially for today's youth. By keeping this tragedy in our collective consciousness, we can strive to never repeat it and guide humanity towards a course of peace. Barefoot Gen Volume Eight ?'Merchants of Death' ? It's 1950 and Gen is now in middle school, where he meets both a progressive-minded schoolteacher at odds with his conservative superiors, and a brilliant but cynical classmate who challenges the teacher's -- and Gen's -- values at every turn. Gen also finds himself confronting the corrosive effects on postwar Hiroshima society of drugs and the arms industry. With the Korean War offering new business opportunities, a new generation of death merchants holds sway in Japan. Gen, his teacher mentor, and other peace-minded citizens are forced to struggle against red-baiting school officials, violent nationalists, and government censorship.

LAST GASP

Life in Hiroshima during the war was difficult for six-year-old Keiji and the Nakazawa family, but they made the best of it. On his way to school one bright August morning, Keiji was unaware his hometown would soon be turned into a world of horrors. That morning, he watched as a single airplane soared through the clear blue sky, carrying with it the most powerful weapon that had ever been created, the atomic bomb, code named 'Little Boy.' It was about to fall on Keiji's city, changing his life forever. This is the true story of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and its effects, seen through the eyes of cartoonist Keiji Nakazawa.

LAST GASP

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

LAST GASP

(W/A) Toshio Saeki He has been called 'the godfather of Japanese erotica.' Toshio Saeki's previously unseen works are collected in a larger-than-usual format, revealing Saeki's creative technique. While most images are shown here in full color, some are presented in their original black and white format, with overlays reproducing Saeki's method for adding color to these pictures. Saeki typically does not apply color directly to his black and white artwork, but instead uses these overlays to enumerate the precise values of the colors he wants. He calls this method chinto printing; the picture is complete only after printing. It is a modern version of the ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese woodcut prints or paintings produced between the 17th and 20th centuries. By illuminating this technique, it better helps the reader to appreciate Saeki's unique style and philosophy as an artist, and his immense talent. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
