I read a lot. I found this book was read in less than 30 mins. It covered a depth and breadth that one may find in a 600page tome, that usually takes much longer to read.
And, as the reader here, I found the powers of association (in all other works previously read) were inadvertently dragged into this book (where applicable) due to the advantage of the woodcut genre... The narrative I find attractive wherein the reader is deeply more imaginatively engaged than usual... I almost expected show more that he would be drowned on the Titanic at the end and yet Nature is his guide... and he survives... The revulsion within and of the authors' view, for consumer-society, came thru very well... show less

Alegorías mudas sobre la evolución de una idea encarnada en una mujer desnuda: escándalo, rechazo, represión, explotación, abandono... El concepto es interesante y el dibujo muy bueno.
