BEATNIK BUENOS AIRES GN

Set in 1963, this graphic novel celebrates a time in Argentine history when its art scene blossomed. Writer Diego Arandojo and illustrator Facundo Percio come together to weave the rich tapestry of Buenos Aires in the time of the beatnik. Arandojo's dialogue lends a poetic quality to these lively characters, while Percio's charcoal drawings perfectly capture the rough charm of this eclectic community of artists and the seedy, smoky locales they inhabit.
