TRAVEL SC (C: 0-1-2)
by Yuichi Yokoyama In two-time Eisner Award nominee Yuichi Yokoyama's Travel, the storyline is as linear as it is sharp; it is the long, silent and crystalline description of a train ride undertaken by three men. The subject Yokoyama depicts here is less the landscape around the train (the distances covered, the regions traveled through) than the actions within the train itself. As the train moves, the three men walk through the string of cars and are confronted with the vehicle's architecture... its machine-like environment. But above all, they are confronted with the stares and the physical presence of other passengers. Travel is a journey into the contemporary Japanese psyche - a brilliant, wordless graphic novel. Introduction by Paul Karasik.
