Summary

Oficinistas que se dirigen diariamente a la jaula de sus trabajos, bañistas que pierden toda su confianza al quedarse desnudos, hombres que se lamentan por la miseria de los demás pero no hacen nada por cambiar las cosas, exrevolucionarios entregados a la llamada del dinero... Cada viñeta de Quino es una flecha de dos puntas. Una da de lleno en la diana del humor y nos arranca una sonrisa, la segunda señala insistentemente los temas más candentes de nuestra sociedad en crisis: el fanatismo religioso, la desigualdad social, la corrupción, el militarismo, el desgaste del amor, e incluso su propia obra.
 
Este libro recopila el valioso material inédito de este autor universal, testigo excepcional de su tiempo, que se posicionó con firmeza a favor de los derechos humanos y de la libertad e hizo de su dibujo un vehículo de pensamiento y protesta, pero sobre todo de humor.
 
«Cada libro de Quino es lo que más se parece a la felicidad: la quinoterapia.» Gabriel García Márquez

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Office workers trudging through their daily grind; people grappling with self-confidence issues in vulnerable moments; men who bemoan the suffering of others but do nothing to fix it; ex-revolutionaries drawn in by the allure of wealth. Each of Quino's vignettes is a double-edged sword: on one side, they hit the bullseye of humor, bringing smiles and laughter, on the other, they persistently shed light on the most pressing issues of our crisis-ridden society: religious fanaticism, social inequality, corruption, militarism, the erosion of love, and even introspection into his own work.
 
This book compiles invaluable, previously unpublished material from universally acclaimed author, Quino. He was an exceptional witness of his time, taking a firm stance in favor of human rights and freedom. He used his artistry as a vehicle for thoughtful critique and protest, but above all, a vehicle for humor.
 
"All of Quino's books are what best resemble happiness: Quinotherapy." -Gabriel García Márquez
