Wes Anderson
Ian Nathan
Dome Books | 2021
Whether or not you are a scholar of Wes Anderson's films, This is one of those books that you can't take your eyes off when you discover it when entering a bookstore.. You get closer, you look at it and take it home. Because the definitive guide to his filmography is also a work of art in itself, starting with the illustration on the cover., its double-sleeved hardcover and the wonderful photographs it contains. But also, immerses you in the director's elegant universe to learn about each of his works in detail with anecdotes, curiosities and lots of color, which will make you relive his films from another perspective or discover in amazement the one you have pending. I am convinced that it will occupy a privileged place on your shelf.
the eel
Paula Bonet
Anagram | 2021
The novel that we recommend to you this month is signed by someone who in the graphic and more visual field needs few introductions but who in the literary, little by little, It is also establishing its name among the essential ones. And it is that, Paula Bonet's talent is indisputable and, If his graphic work captivates you from the moment you discover it, his words in the eel they will wrap you in a spiral of situations and realities that need to be told. Abuses, mistreaters, pain, losses and the woman's body as a battlefield. A fundamental book with autobiographical overtones so that the respect and freedom of women is not something that we have to continue claiming.
