As a massive nirvana fan I was very intrigued how a comic would work and guess what ? It does what an emotional story and detailed art work.

Short book that’s a collection of events that has happened in the Italian underworld, it’s interesting to read but no where near the quality of gomorah, it’s worth a read if you are interested in Roberto savianos work.

Amazing, loved the way it went between ww2 and when he was older, he was funny when older as well. Such a tragic story, but amazing he survived. Sometimes comics don’t allways have the depth of a novel but this had depth and more. Even if you don’t like comics this is worth a read.
