Asano Inio - What a wonderful world
Being his first series, What a Wonderful World remains Asano?s most representative and successful work to date. Composed of vignettes from the daily lives of a group of people inhabiting an ordinary neighborhood somewhere in Tokyo, the series is actually a comment about modern life itself and how we can survive in it despite all its rigors. Amusing, melancholic, funny, strange, thought-provoking. Asano effortlessly shifts from one mood to another, creating stories and characters that are profoundly human and thus always involving.
