來自著名漫畫家的有趣而富有洞察力的回顧系列。廣受喜愛的漫畫家蓋伊·德萊爾（Guy Delisle）以狡猾的幽默感和溫暖的人物形象展示了他職業(yè)生涯中的一系列作品。在 Delisle 憑借他的環(huán)球旅行游記成為國際巨星之前，他是一名嘗試漫畫形式的動畫師。年輕的 Delisle 始終意識到人體形態(tài)的彈性并磨練他敏銳的觀察者的眼睛，創(chuàng)造了熱鬧的布景。世界紀錄保持者的范圍從渴望童年的懷舊情緒到成名后的懊惱遭遇，觸及正式雄心勃勃的視覺雙關(guān)語和破壞腸胃的假設(shè)。 Delisle 一次又一次地展示了生活是多么令人振奮和尷尬。 Delisle 在另一個國家參觀了他的作品展覽，并遇到了一位憤怒的配偶，她指責他破壞了她的婚姻。弓和箭的少年游戲變得來勢洶洶，直射空中的箭變成了幾乎看不見的死亡導彈。來自太空的編碼信息會在不同人的辯論、舞蹈節(jié)、畫廊展覽中產(chǎn)生不同的反應。由 Helge Dascher 和 Rob Aspinall 翻譯。
A funny and insightful retrospective collection from a celebrated cartoonist. Universally beloved cartoonist Guy Delisle showcases a career-spanning collection of his work with a sly sense of humour and warm characterization. Before Delisle became an international superstar with his globe-hopping travelogues, he was an animator experimenting with the comics form. Always aware of the elasticity of the human form and honing his keen observer s eye, young Delisle created hilarious set pieces. World Record Holders ranges from wistful childhood nostalgia to chagrined post-fame encounters, touching on formally ambitious visual puns and gut-busting what-ifs. Delisle again and again shows how life is both exhilarating and embarrassing. Delisle visits an exhibition of his work in another country and is confronted by an angry spouse who blames him for destroying her marriage. A juvenile game of Bows and Arrows turns menacing as arrows shot straight up in the air turn into barely visible missiles of death. A coded message from space creates different reactions from different people debates, dance festivals, gallery shows. Translated by Helge Dascher and Rob Aspinall.
