(interior art) Visually stunning, tactile, and mesmerizing, this
graphic novel is a debut at the summit from a self-taught
Argentinian visionary. Lorenzo isn't happy about moving. But in his
new room, he finds an old desk with what seems likes hundreds of
drawers. Each even has its own smell! Deep inside the desk, he
finds a book and begins to read. When he looks up, he sees all
kinds of curious things. Has the book come to life? Or is it
something else? This is a graphic novel about observation,
imagination, and the many incredible lenses through which everyday
experience might be perceived if you read. Guillermo Decurgez,
"Decur," was born in Rosario, Argentina in 1981. He is a
