True to form, Tsuge delivers much more than a straight accounting of a cartoonist’s life. Lust routinely distracts our young artists while older artists again and again provide a model for what not to do, or more likely, where a cartoonist’s life will lead you. Fleeting moments of domestic happiness are upset by bouts of self-doubt. As always, Tsuge’s art is succinct and glorious—a beautiful document of a changing Japan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis penultimate volume in Drawn and Quarterly’s complete collection of the legendary manga-ka’s oeuvre collects richly-detailed and deeply human comics stories originally published between 1981 and 1985. Translated by prolific manga scholar and art historian Ryan Holmberg.","brand":"Drawn and Quarterly","offers":[{"title":"CA - Hardback","offer_id":49015714709731,"sku":"DTRMCUS-9781770468597","price":192.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/getimage_63cf90e0-03d3-49c3-b7f9-486df9706812.jpg?v=1779796088","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/zh-mo\/products\/9781770468597","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
