L'Arabe du futur - volume 1 - - Tome 1 (1): Une jeunesse au Moyen-Orient (1978-1984)

Hilarious and helps to practice my french too...!!

la revelation de cette anne. Meme si on a parfois un peu l'impression de retrouver les carnets de Jerusalem ou de Joe Sacco, le style est tres personnel et on voyage vraiment a des annees lumieres. la suite, vite!

Tres bon

Deeply touching and compelling read.

Wonderful comic

A superb, deeply tragic work whose comic book format should not be allowed to distract from its importance. The bitterness and disillusionment of Sattouf's father and many Arabs of his generation is portrayed in poignant detail that's tragic, ironic, and sometimes ridiculous. It's a brutally, painfully honest work and a brilliant, difficult and challenging read that will leave a lasting impression if you know anything at all about the Arab world. It recalls Persepolis for its frankness and deadly insight, but it's a sadder and probably more relevant work.
