Pyongyang

cover of the comics 'Pyongyang' by Guy Delisle

Apparently, Guy Delisle, a Canadian citizen, is a cartoon supervisor, like my friend Gilles. He visited NK for two months, on a work assignment, and relates his “tour of duty” in a fascinating, very humorous, although very bleak, 100+ pages. He also visited Shenzhen, apparently, but couldn’t read the book, as all copied were shrink-wrapped…

Definitely worth a read…

    Shenzhen is in one box lying in my sister’s cellar. I can lend it to you as soon as I move back :-)

    Could be nice… I may still buy Pyongyang [I am a leech :-) I read it on site, at Fnac Montparnasse…], as it is very cool, in a gray, desperate way…
