( ) Thousands of houses were destroyed in the Tubbs Fire in Santa Rosa and as many families were thrown into chaos. Brian Fies brings us into his story, but he's also a journalist, telling other people's stories. The drawings and text are walking me through the story, then a page turn hits me, like 37 to 38, 67 to 68, or 126 to 127. I know those numbers mean nothing to you, so read the book. Find the page that hits you in the heart. Memoir This one is brutal. It's beautifully illustrated and unfortunately still extremely relevant. The author wakes to find a fire is heading towards their house. After they evacuate, their house is completely destroyed. He catalogs the devastation caused by the fire, and how it impacted others at well. It was very well done. As I write this review fires are one again burning in California. So this book, while a memoir of one group's experience, is once again being lived by hundreds if not thousands of people. This story is poignant. I love how the author tells not just his story, but that of neighbors, friends, and other people he knew, some of which didn’t live to see the current blazes. I think this was the perfect format to tell this story. The author mixed his visual medium with his storytelling in a way that was compelling and kept the pages turning. A modern masterpiece of graphic novels that I think will be read for years to come, and maybe even be on future lists of best of best. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Early morning on Monday, October 9, 2017, wildfires burned through Northern California, resulting in 44 fatalities. In addition, 6,200 homes and 8,900 structures and were destroyed. Author Brian Fies's firsthand account of this tragic event is an honest, unflinching depiction of his personal experiences, including losing his house and every possession he and his wife had that didn't fit into the back of their car. In the days that followed, as the fires continued to burn through the area, Brian hastily pulled together A Fire Story and posted it online-it immediately went viral. He is now expanding his original webcomic to include environmental insight and the fire stories of his neighbors and others in his community. A Fire Story is an honest account of the wildfires that left homes destroyed, families broken, and a community determined to rebuild. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
