Overview

Ganador del premio Whiting en ficción.

La novela gráfica del año en más de 100 listas de Europa y Estados Unidos


«Emil Ferris es una de las artistas de novela gráfica más importante de nuestra era». Art Spiegelman

Premiada con 2 Ignatz, 3 Eisner, 1 Guinigi, 1 ACBD Gran Prix, 1 Carlos Giménez, 1 Premio de los Libreros de Madrid, 1 Premio del Cómic Aragonés. Premio al mejor Cómic Internacional del Salón Internacional del Cómic de Barcelona 2019.

Un cómic que ya se ha convertido en un clásico moderno.

Esta es la historia de Karen Reyes, una peculiar niña de diez años que vive en la oscura Chicago de finales de los sesenta. Lleva un diario gráfico que refleja su pasión por las películas de terror de serie B y la iconografía de las revistas pulp de monstruos. Se retrata a sí misma como una niña-lobo vestida de detective y, como tal, se propone un día resolver el misterio que rodea el asesinato de su bella y enigmática vecina del piso de arriba, Anka Silverberg, una superviviente del Holocausto.

Mientras Karen investiga el crimen, veremos pasar las vidas fascinantes e interconectadas de todos quienes la rodean: su hermano Deeze, cuyo alistamiento a Vietnam es inminente y a quien tortura un secreto del pasado; su madre Marvela, una mujer impredecible que ha sacado adelante a una familia parcialmente disfuncional; Sam Silverberg, el Rápido, baterista de jazz recién enviudado; el Sr. Gronan, casero del edificio y mafioso a tiempo parcial; Sylvia Gronan, esposa de este y conocedora de los secretos de la comunidad; el Sr. Chugg, un ventrílocuo de extrañas costumbres; y el extraño y conmovedor catálogo de amigos de Karen, reales e irreales a partes iguales.

Cuando las pesquisas de Karen se ramifiquen hasta llegar a la Alemania nazi, va a manifestarse claramente cómo pueden converger lo personal y lo político, el pasado y el presente, y cómo incluso el bien puede albergar una porción de lo monstruoso.

Lo que más me gusta son los monstruos es una explosión narrativa sin precedentes que ya ha encumbrado a su autora entre los grandes maestros contemporáneos del cómic.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Winner of the Whiting Award in Fiction.

In this debut, which takes the form of a fictional graphic diary, a 10-year-old girl tries to solve a murder.

Set against the tumultuous political backdrop of late ’60s Chicago, My Favorite Thing Is Monsters is the fictional graphic diary of 10-year-old Karen Reyes, filled with B-movie horror and pulp monster magazines iconography. Karen Reyes tries to solve the murder of her enigmatic upstairs neighbor, Anka Silverberg, a holocaust survivor, while the interconnected stories of those around her unfold. When Karen’s investigation takes us back to Anka’s life in Nazi Germany, the reader discovers how the personal, the political, the past, and the present converge. Full-color illustrations throughout.
