series: Zanardi

Andrea Pazienza was part of a group of Italian cartoonists who pioneered an approach to comics comparable to Moebius in France and Robert Crumb in the U.S. Zanardi portrays teenagers coping with family problems, school, sex, and drugs - all universal tales in many Western countries. Pazienza has never been translated and published in English until now. Fantagraphics is proud to introduce American readers to this blazingly honest cartoonist of international stature.
