Guy Delisle's newest travelogue revolves around a year spent in
Burma (also known as Myanmar) with his wife and son. Burma is
notorious for its use of concealment and isolation as social
control: where scissor-wielding censors monitor the papers, the de
facto leader of the opposition has been under decade-long house
arrest, insurgent-controlled regions are effectively cut off from
the world, and rumour is the most reliable source of current
information. An impressive and moving work of comics journalism
from the author of Pyongyang and Shenzen.
