Of course I'd recommend that people start with the first volume. I'm not a big graphic novel reader but this genre of "graphic memoirs" is really good, because the artwork makes it so personal. Also liked Maus and Persepolis. Can't wait to read more by Riad Sattouf! ( ) Riad Sattouf documents his time in Syria and attending school for the first time. I guess it is inevitable that he does so from an adult's perspective, though with humour. All around him is evidence of a failing state: poverty, poor education, normalised crime and corruption and aggression, a wealthy military-based upper class in Damascus totally removed from the general ill-being of the populace. He pokes fun at his father, who is depicted as a dreamer who deliberately ignores the sad reality around him. This dreaminess is disrupted when Riad's father is forced to take sides in a family split when he is confronted by one of tha nastier aspects of the Arab state -- Si on continue à suivre la vie du petit Riad, 6 ans, désormais installé en Syrie et qu'il est toujours aussi chou… Ce qui l'entoure le semble de moins en moins. Un pays très pauvre, des méthodes d'enseignement disons… brutales et doctrinaires et une famille aux règles morales patriarcales, islamiques et archaïques. Une enfance insouciante dans un monde violent sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

"In The Arab of the Future: Volume 1, cartoonist Riad Sattouf tells of the first years of his childhood as his family shuttles back and forth between France and the Middle East. In Libya and Syria, young Riad is exposed to the dismal reality of a life where food is scarce, children kill dogs for sport, and his cousins, virulently anti-Semitic and convinced he is Jewish because of his blond hair, lurk around every corner waiting to beat him up. In Volume 2, Riad, now settled in his father's hometown of Homs, gets to go to school, where he dedicates himself to becoming a true Syrian in the country of the dictator Hafez Al-Assad. Told simply yet with devastating effect, Riad's story takes in the sweep of politics, religion, and poverty, but is steered by acutely observed small moments: the daily sadism of his schoolteacher, the lure of the black market, with its menu of shame and subsistence, and the obsequiousness of his father in the company of those close to the regime. As his family strains to fit in, one chilling, barbaric act drives the Sattoufs to make the most dramatic of changes. Darkly funny and piercingly direct, The Arab of the Future, Volume 2 once again reveals the inner workings of a tormented country and a tormented family, delivered through Riad Sattouf's dazzlingly original talent."--Provided by publisher.
