Description

A powerful and poignant graphic novel that captures the heart of day-to-day life in occupied Palestine. In 1991 and 1992, Joe Sacco spent two months with the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, travelling and taking notes. He then drew upon these experiences to create a nine-issue comics series that combines eyewitness reportage with the medium of comic-book storytelling.

Through a unique blend of image and text, Sacco explores the complexities and emotions of this situation, producing a work that is both deeply insightful and remarkably humorous. Now published in one volume, this book is a significant work of graphic non-fiction that sets a high standard for the genre.
