This book was released on 2003 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dodici racconti che trasportano i lettori in altrettanti viaggi tra creature fantastiche, ambientazioni spettacolari, magie, incantesimi, esseri mostruosi, entità dotate di poteri straordinari e misteriosi, in una cornice sospesa nel tempo di un passato lontanissimo e un presente irreale. È il gioco magico dell'invenzione fantastica il motore comune delle dodici storie, tratte da libri più classici e famosi, come Il mago di Oz o Flatlandia e autori conosciuti come Tolkien e Ende e altri meno noti, che narrano di Boscofondo o del mistero degli Invisibili. È un libro che sottolinea il fascino delle narrazioni fantastiche e fantasy, scoperte attraverso gli occhi di giovani protagonisti, nei quali è facile per il lettore identificarsi.

Download or read book Killing and Dying written by Adrian Tomine and published by Drawn & Quarterly. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Killing and Dying is a stunning showcase of the possibilities of the graphic novel medium and a wry exploration of loss, creative ambition, identity, and family dynamics. With this work, Adrian Tomine (Shortcomings, Scenes from an Impending Marriage) reaffirms his place not only as one of the most significant creators of contemporary comics but as one of the great voices of modern American literature. His gift for capturing emotion and intellect resonates here: the weight of love and its absence, the pride and disappointment of family, the anxiety and hopefulness of being alive in the twenty-first century. "Amber Sweet" shows the disastrous impact of mistaken identity in a hyper-connected world; "A Brief History of the Art Form Known as Hortisculpture" details the invention and destruction of a vital new art form in short comic strips; "Translated, from the Japanese" is a lush, full-color display of storytelling through still images; the title story, "Killing and Dying", centers on parenthood, mortality, and stand-up comedy. In six interconnected, darkly funny stories, Tomine forms a quietly moving portrait of contemporary life. Tomine is a master of the small gesture, equally deft at signaling emotion via a subtle change of expression or writ large across landscapes illustrated in full color. Killing and Dying is a fraught, realist masterpiece.
