Jerusalem Chronicles from the Holy City

"A wonderfully candid book, which makes the situation's hideously insoluble complexities more vividly understandable than anything else I have encountered." -- Rupert Christiansen Daily Telegraph "My other favourite graphic book of the year... makes breathtakingly light work of one of the world's most complex political situations." -- Rachel Cooke Observer "His [Delisle's] quizzical, bemused approach comes as a breath of fresh air on a topic fraught with political division.the utterly distinctive drawings are as enchanting as ever." -- Tim Martin Telegraph "Quietly living his life and observing what goes on around him, Delisle captures the craziness, beauty and tragedy of the Israel-Palestine conundrum." -- Keith Kahn-Harris Jewish Chronicle "Jerusalem is Delisle's biggest and most accomplished work to date. Without Delisle we might never learn what it's actually like to live in a place like this, or get a realistic idea of the people we would meet if we did. He's clear-eyed, good-hearted, he takes what he sees and he turns it into art." -- Rev'd Hayley Campbell New Statesman
