Omschrijving
Burma is notorious for its use of concealment and isolation as social control: where scissor-wielding censors monitor the papers, the de facto leader of the opposition has been under decade-long house arrest, insurgent-controlled regions are effectively cut off from the world, and rumour is the most reliable source of current information. Guy Delisle's newest travelogue revolves around a year spent in Burma (also known as Myanmar) with his wife and son. An impressive and moving work of comics journalism from the author of Pyongyang and Shenzen.
