Tales of the Wild East by Joann Sfar
4.0
"I believe God loves those moments when we do without him." --Joann Sfar.
Another reason to adore Joann Sfar is his _Klezmer: Book One: Tales of the Wild East_. With light, quick hand and wit Sfar paints the tale of a ragged band of musicians and Yeshiva dropouts who sing folk songs as they travel from village to village. Their destination: Odessa, where an exotic, wealthy woman hires them to play at her mansion. Another set of hilarious, splotchy drawings illuminate the pages of _Klezmer_. The book reminds me an old yearning to (xyz). I'm looking forward to Book Two.
