Sinossi
Con questo volume Edizioni NPE raccoglie tutte le storie brevi a fumetti degli esordi di Koren Shadmi, in una nuova e restaurata veste grafica. Piccoli ma taglienti capolavori di crudeltà e riflessione, è impossibile leggere una storia di Shadmi senza restarne profondamente turbati, senza sentirsi costretti a rivalutare le proprie convinzioni. Il tutto condito dal suo realismo magico, che caratterizza da sempre il suo modo di comunicare con noi: l'assurdo e il surreale sottraggono l'oscenità visiva alla scena, pur lasciando tutto il dolore e la potenza del vissuto.

Excellent book of short vignettes about relationships told in a surreal way with a succinct and mature handling of the graphic medium. In fact one is left convinced that surrealism is the best way to communicate on many levels stories of human relationships. The drawing is superb, and though the sto Leggi tutto
The art in the book is beautifully well done, it's also the reason I bought the book. However, I only give it 2 stars because the stories are about women that always leave men wanting or punishing them in some way. Some of the stories are really interesting, but this is probably not a book I will re Leggi tutto
A greatly disappointing collection from Koren Shadmi, whose later work is great. But this is very much the early and uncertain work of a young artist: one-idea stories such as dating a radioactive girl or having sex with a headless lover that really don't amount to anything. Shadmi hasn't learned ho Leggi tutto
A collection of stories which focuses on relationships and the interplay between men and women, while adding in a surrealist element in every piece. This darkly poetic book has some very valid commentary on modern relationship and delivers in a unique manner. It also a very literary work and contain Leggi tutto
