Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Sacco survives by making friends and living in the same conditions as those he covers. This gives his work a kind of street-level grit and insight, and it also makes it hard to romanticize the people he writes about...His drawings are stark, realistic visionsof the gray, depressing world of a land mangled by artillery shells and deformed by poverty.

Reseña del editor:

When bombs are falling and western journalism is the only game left in town, local "fixers" sell war correspondents the human tragedy and moral outrage that makes news editors back home happy. American Book Award winner Sacco goes behind the scene of war correspondence to reveal the anatomy of the big scoop.
