review 1: Este quadrinho contém tanto ruído de informação e experimentalismo narrativo que ou você pode considerar o autor alguém que não está falando nada com nada ou um sujeito sagaz. Prefiro pensar que trata-se do segundo caso, pois o ritmo quase incosciente do desvelar dos quadros, do que se é mostrado gratuitamente e das conexões aparentemente dissonantes entre partes sucessivas tornam a abordagem abstrata - o que é algo um tanto unusual para quadrinhos e merece aqui reconhecimento. O tema é o reino animal na vida contemporânea e, pensando nisso, o enfoque escolhido faz muito sentido - evidencia a loucura e o caos que a natureza encontrou a partir de seu distanciamento e, consequentemente, maior choque com homem moderno. Para uma abordagem tão abstrata quanto esta... more sobre o mesmo tema, porém menos frenética e mais contemplativa, recomendo o trabalho de Yuichi Yokoyama.
review 2: I think there that Huizenga is a genius. That said, I think the character Glenn Ganges is at his best when he is interacting with people. That's not to say the sort of silent film sequence with Glenn in this book isn't amazing (it is incredible), but the parts of this story that drift from Glenn into seeming abstraction just plain aren't as enjoyable as when Glenn is interacting with people. Absolute genius book, but I have to admit I was hoping for more of Glenn interacting with other characters than vignettes serving as "landmarks" along my own journey. less

It took me a while to get with the rhythms if this book, but Wien I did I really liked it.

Deserves a second read. Not the best of Glenn Ganges, but certainly has its moments.

Pretty pointless, shouldn't have been published as a hardcover collection.

Slight, ridiculous, and fun.
