Il Diario di Norio Suzuki | Il Samurai d’Acciaio

Amianto Comics

Writer Alessandro Benassi

Who really was Norio Suzuki? A traveller, a dreamer, a free spirit. He was the man who travelled halfway around the world to seek out and find Hiroo Onoda in the heart of the Philippine jungle. This special volume, included with ‘The Steel Samurai’, is a fictional (yet documented) reconstruction of his travel diary: notes, thoughts, sketches and reflections of a young man searching for “the loneliest man in the world”. A parallel narrative that reveals the other side of the story, with sensitivity and humour.
Questo volume speciale, allegato a Il Samurai d’Acciaio, è una ricostruzione immaginaria (ma documentata) del suo taccuino di viaggio: note, pensieri, schizzi e riflessioni di un ragazzo che cercava “il più solitario uomo del mondo”.
Un racconto parallelo che illumina l’altra faccia della storia, con delicatezza e ironia.
