Goražde: rapport från en FN-skyddszon under kriget i Bosnien 1992-95 by Joe Sacco
dark
reflective
sad
slow-paced
4.5
Journalism presented in comic book form can be really powerful (think MAUS) and this testimony from the Balkan wars, specifically the situation in the UN free zone Gorazde, is a good example of how to do it.
A bit stiff at the beginning perhaps, a bit slow you might say, but as the interviewed people tell more about their experiences the more you really don’t want to hear. It’s gut wrenching at times, and the feeling sticks.
