Gewonde stad

In Gewonde stad (2014–present), writer and artist Gerolf van de Perre crafts a singular, introspective graphic novel for De Bezige Bij that examines the psychological aftermath of urban violence. Through a single, self-contained issue, the book uses muted, expressive art to trace how a city and its inhabitants process trauma, memory, and the slow work of healing. It stands as a quiet, literary European comic that prioritizes mood and reflection over action.
