I'm Still Alive
I’m Still Alive is a graphic novel memoir of the Italian writer and journalist Roberto Saviano. In 2006, he wrote his best-known work, Gomorrah. In the book, he exposed the Neapolitan mafia, the Camorra. It became a bestseller in Italy and sold 10 million copies worldwide. He was receiving constant threats because of this book. And after fifteen years, Saviano still has a permanent police escort. In I’m Still Alive, he remembers his youth, shares his personal thoughts, and writes about his life in the last fifteen years.
I didn’t read Gomorrah yet or watched the series, but it is on my mind.
Asaf Hanuka illustrated the graphic novel, and the art is beautiful and realistic. I liked the choice of colors and different styles that Hanuka used. He sometimes added basic colors (red, green, blue, and yellow) to the grayscale illustrations.
