Why read it?
1 author picked Tintin in Tibet as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have probably read this book more than twenty times. Maybe thirty. Maybe more.
I was six or seven the first time I read it and in my mid-forties the last time. And it has only gotten richer and more profound to me in that time. On the surface it is, like any other Tintin book, a children’s adventure comic, and if that’s all you want it’s a brilliant example of the genre.
Funny, exquisitely drawn, a cliffhanger on every page. But you don’t have to dig very far below the surface to find a deep, complicated meditation on friendship…
From Anders' list on deeply human graphic novels.
