I took my time with this book due to its detail and essentially having a lifetime between its covers. It is a memoir of the husband of a couple in China that endured the early twentieth century to 2008. It's written in a straightforward simple manner which is definitely necessary for its level of detail. This also helps with the names of people that surrounded them and that came and went throughout their life together. A scene on a bridge near the beginning made me feel a twinge of nostalgia for Pingru's memories concerning it. This book is engaging and packs a punch. I would definitely recommend it. ( ) Una storia come tante, che attraversa la storia e i cambiamenti della Cina e che diventa esemplare anche grazie all'uso dei disegni di Pingru che ne illustrano ogni pagina. In Pingru e Meitang trovo quella combinazione di innocenza, casualità e grazia così vicina a quanto della Cina raccontava Parise alla fine degli anni '60 (e agli albori della rivoluzione culturale), inclusa la grande attenzione per il cibo che popola queste pagine. Una storia semplice, che qualcuno forse oggi connoterebbe con la parola di moda "resilienza" ma che a me viene anzitutto da associare alle parole accettazione e pazienza, che hanno reso possibile l'unione dei due protagonisti. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML:Begun by the author when he was eighty-seven years old and mourning the loss of his wife, Our Story is a graphic memoir like no other: a celebration of a marriage that spanned the twentieth century in China, told in vibrant, original paintings and prose. Rao Pingru was twenty-four-year-old soldier when he was reintroduced to Mao Meitang, a girl he'd known in childhood and now the woman his father had arranged for him to marry. One glimpse of her through a window as she put on lipstick was enough to capture Pingru's heart: a moment that sparked a union that would last almost sixty years. Our Story is Pingru and Meitang's epic but unassuming romance. It follows the couple through the decades, in both poverty and good fortuneâ??looking for work, opening a restaurant, moving cities, mending shoes, raising their children, and being separated for seventeen years by the government when Pingru is sent to a labor camp. As the pair ages, China undergoes extraordinary growth, political turmoil, and cultural change. When Meitang passes away in 2008, Pingru memorializes his wife and their relationship the only way he knows how: through painting. In an outpouring of love and grief, he puts it all on paper. Spanning 1922 through 2008, Our Story is a tales of enduring love and simple values that is at once tragic and inspiring: an old-fashioned story that unfolds in a nation undergoing cataclysmic change. (With gorgeous full-color illustrations throughout, and a distinctive exposed spine emulating the original Chinese design.) Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
