Baci dalla provincia #1
In this poignant 2005 issue from Coconino Press, Gipi delivers a quiet yet powerful story as Gil, tasked with watching his nephew for the day, takes him to meet Valerio—just out of prison after years behind bars for stabbing a police officer who had repeatedly abused him. With Gipi handling writing, art, and inks, the narrative unfolds with a restrained intensity, capturing the weight of past trauma and the fragile hope of connection. The cover, also by Gipi, mirrors the story’s somber, intimate tone.
