Ky??to, 1966. Young Hamaguchi works for a textile manufacturer while dreaming of becoming an artist, until an incident at the zoo forces his hand. Invited to T??ky?? by an old school friend, Hamagushi interviews at the studios of the famous mangaka, Shiro Kond??, where he discovers the long hours of meeting deadlines along with the nightlife of the capital. Multi Eisner-nominee Taniguchi recalls his beginnings in manga and his youth spent in T??ky?? in the 60's in an account of his apprenticeship where all the finesse and elegance of the creator are united to illustrate those first emotions of adulthood. 1912097311 9781912097319 551773 SEP171618 Jiro Taniguchi
