I had to read it all in one sitting. ( ) The author's uncle was the family storyteller, spinning tales from his childhood in rural Thailand to his time attached to the Thai diplomatic corps in Europe during World War II. His adventures are fairly low-key and slice-of-life; he leads a fairly charmed life despite being in an active theater of war. It's almost too mild, but the color scheme, of all things, tips it up a star, as I just found myself entranced by its warmth. Papaya Salad es la primera novela gráfica de la ilustradora ítalo-tailandesa Elisa Macellari y es la historia verdadera de su tío Sompong, que desde Tailandia viajó a Europa en vísperas de la Segunda Guerra mundial. Un hombre tranquilo pero decidido, que quería buscar su sitio en el mundo. La voz del protagonista es firme y serena, como la voz de quien es consciente de estar viviendo un momento crucial de la Historia y, sin renunciar a leer la realidad desde su sensibilidad y su cultura, consigue alcanzar su destino. Elisa Macellari, tras muchos años de experiencia como ilustradora, con un estilo en el que se funden los dos mundos culturalmente distantes que constituyen sus raíces, nos regala una historia épica, una promesa solemne susurrada al oído. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"The debut graphic novel from Thai-Italian illustrator Elisa Macellari, Papaya Salad tells the story of her great-uncle Sompong who found himself in Europe on military scholarship on the eve of World War II. A gentle and resolute man in love with books and languages, in search of his place in the world, Sompong chronicles his life during the war and falling for his wife, finding humor and joy even as the world changes irrevocably around him."-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
