O Árabe do Futuro #3

The third volume of Riad Sattouf's celebrated autobiographical series arrives in this Brazilian Portuguese edition from Intrínseca, covering a youth in the Middle East from 1985 to 1987. The cover's bold red palette sets a quietly tense mood, showing a family — adults and a small child — making their way past a looming aircraft, while another figure stands apart near what appears to be a bathroom mirror reflecting a cartoon character. Sattouf's clean, expressive line work turns an everyday travel scene into something loaded with emotion and cultural in-between-ness.
