Description

Book from the Ground is a graphic novel composed entirely of symbols and icons that are universally understood. Created by Chinese artist Xu Bing, it tells the story of a typical urban white-collar worker's day in a visual language that can be read by anyone familiar with modern life. The book follows the protagonist's daily routine, from waking up to going to bed, using a combination of pictograms to recount his experiences.
