CIGARRA, de Shaun Tan


Per aquí ha arribat CIGARRA, d'en Shaun Tan. Publicat per Barbara Fiore editora.
Una història que, en forma de telegrama, ens explica en tons grisosos, com els de l'edifici on se sent atrapat aquest ésser, una situació del treball dels adults. Un tema dur, duríssim com mai abans s'ha vist representat d'aquest manera, directa i punyent. Fins al final. TAC TAC TAC.



I wanted to create a picture book that, as usual, was not particularly for children (while still accessible to them). I was thinking about friends and family who have worked in places where they felt underappreciated, including my father who had mixed experiences in his professional life, and has since happily disappeared somewhere in his garden since retirement, growing everything from olives to custard apples.

Shaun Tan.
