Informationen zum Autor Andrea Pazienza was an Italian painter and comics artist. Born in 1956 in San Benedetto del Tronto, Pazienza is best known as the impetus for a watershed moment in Italian comics. He died at 32 from a heroin overdose, and the nonprofit "Centro Fumetto Andrea Pazienza" was created in his memory to support young cartoonists and further develop their skills. Klappentext In this graphic novel, presented in English for the first time, the Italian "Crumb" portrays a lost generation of late 1970s/early 1980s teenagers coping with family problems, school, sex, and drugs. Zusammenfassung A true visionary! with a fluid line and an uncanny sense of color and composition! Pazienza's innovative graphic style served up stories that were iconoclastic! outrageous! humorous! and deeply personal! often based on himself and his microcosm of friends and collaborators. Pazienza was a revolutionary cartoonist who ushered an underground sensibility to Italian and European comics! breaking from the more staid tradition of genteel adult (and children's) graphic albums.
