Publisher Description: Two young brothers and their father scavenge a post-apocalyptic landscape for anything that will keep them alive for one more day. Although their survival hangs in the balance, the boys are obsessed with only one thing?the diary their father keeps. They've never been taught to read or write, but they have a hunch that the scribbles might be the answer to all their questions. Juxtaposing stark savagery with poignant compassion, Land of the Sons is Gipi's most artistically accomplished work to date. |
