La mort del pare, una història de vida quotidiana, tendra i dolça, també agredolça. La vida d'una família d'extracció humil però que amb l'evolució social dels anys 60,70 i 80 aconsegueix fer-se una caseta al camp, el pare per mitjà d'autoconstrucció arriba a fer-la, els fills col.laboren en els treballs, però de mica en mica van allunyant-se de casa per fer la seva vida i al pare es l'únic que s'hi dedica, però arriba la mort del pare i l'abandonament de la casa. Al cap d'un any hi tornen tots per arreglar-la una mica i vendre-la, vendre-la? Història entrnyable, emotiva i on tots ens hoi podem sentir identificats. graphic novel, semi-autobiographical (grief, family history). Siblings begin the process of cleaning up their fathers/grandfather's country home after their father's passing; sharing memories and stories helps them deal with their grief. Each set of panels is beautifully composed and drawn, though the Spanish was quite beyond my capabilities, even with my trusty dictionary at hand. The subject is also on the slow, quiet side, so it's probably not the best choice of material for a Spanish-learner. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
In Paco Roca's intensely intimate and international award-winning graphic novel, The House, three adult siblings return to their family's quaint vacation home a year after their father's death. They each bring their respective wives, husbands, and children there with the intention to clean up the residence and put it on the market, but as garbage is hauled off and dust is wiped away, decades-old resentments quickly fill the vacant home. Through flashbacks into each sibling's memories - the fig trees they grew up climbing, the pergola they never got around to build, the final visits to the hospital - Roca gives us a glimpse into domestic moments of joy, guilt, and disappointment while asking what happens to brothers and sisters when the only person holding the family together is now gone. Much like the film The Big Chill, The House is both painful and touching, brilliantly rendered on panoramic pages by Roca, who is known for his empathetic books like the 2017 Eisner Award-nominated Wrinkles. At once deeply personal (dedicated to Roca's own deceased father) and entirely universal, The House details the struggle to overcome the past, but still hold onto the memories.

Finora è stato come cercare di raggiungere
una meta. Ma in questi giorni qui per la prima volta
mi sono fermato e ho potuto guardare indietro.
Ho la sensazione che quella corsa era una specie
di fuga da delle radici di cui in qualche modo
mi vergognavo. Mi Capisci?
