Chabouté

In 1896, gold was discovered in “the Klondike region of northern Canada.”

“Thousands of men, questing for fortune or adventure, lost themselves and perished in this desert of snow and ice.”

The cold…

Man vs. the cold. Traveling alone. Not heeding good advice. And the dog.

This book is great! Beautifully drawn and well written! The story feels as cold as it looks on the page! And that ending... Bravo!!!!

Crítica | Um Pedaço de Madeira e Aço: https://www.planocritico.com/critica-um-pedaco-de-madeira-e-aco/

It's been a while since I read Moby-Dick and, though I liked it a lot I am unlikely to read it again (so many books, so little time). But a graphic novel edition? Yes, please! It was a treat to get a refresher in the form of a book I could finish in one sitting, as well as reintroductions to the characters and overall narrative arc. I would have preferred an illustration style that was a bit less stark, but a lack of color is arguably a fitting artistic choice.

Este é um livro que não tem nenhuma fala, mas ele emociona o leitor mesmo assim.
É uma estória linda e cativante não só sobre um simples "pedaço de madeira e aço", mas sobre todas as estórias que ele proporcionou.
