Crónicas de Jerusalén

Guy Delisle's Crónicas de Jerusalén (2011–present, Astiberri Ediciones) is a single-volume graphic novel that distills the cartoonist's year-long stay in East Jerusalem into a quiet, keenly observed travelogue. Delisle, known for his deadpan line and anthropological eye, documents the city's surreal daily life—checkpoints, religious tensions, and mundane errands—with a dry humor that never oversimplifies the region's complexity. It's a landmark work of autobiographical comics that matters for its human-scale, non-sensationalist portrait of a place often reduced to headlines.
