Description
Book SynopsisGuy Delisle expertly lays the groundwork for a cultural road map of contemporary Jerusalem, utilizing the classic stranger-in-a-strange-land point of view that made his other books, Pyongyang, Shenzhen, and Burma Chronicles, required reading for understanding what daily life is like in cities few are able to travel to.
Trade ReviewSuperb book of reportage from that city. -- Rachel Cooke * Observer *
His witty observation and beautiful pictures are delightful. -- Sarah Ison * Times Higher Education *
A witty, wise graphic travelogue that says more about everyday life in the region than all the news reports and "gritty" features. -- Chris Moss * Sunday Telegraph *
A wonderfully candid book, which makes the situation’s hideously insoluble complexities more vividly understandable than anything else I have encountered. -- Rupert Christiansen * Daily Telegraph *
My other favourite graphic book of the year... makes breathtakingly light work of one of the world’s most complex political situations. -- Rachel Cooke * Observer *
