Description
Craig Thompson — the award-winning creator of Blankets and Habibi — spent three months travelling through Barcelona, the Alps, and France, as well as Morocco. Spontaneous sketches and a travelogue diary document his adventures and quiet moments, creating a raw and intimate portrait of countries, culture and the wandering artist.
“Thought provoking and touching.” — Publishers Weekly
“With all of its pages drawn from life, here at last we have one continuous journey, rich with detail of place and characters, told with humor, pathos and insight.” — Andrew Arnold, Time
“Thompson goes far beyond ‘objective reporting’, and has drawn and written a fascinating piece of autobiography with an acute sense of time and place.” — Lincoln Heights Literary Society
“We read and we envy. We would break his goddamn fingers if we ever thought that the success of our own books could give us half as much pleasure as we get vicariously from the success of his.” — Eddie Campbell, The Comics Journal
