book
Reviews and Quotes |
"Barajas remains part of a defiant class of academics and artists committed
to national ideals spun more from the Mexican revolution than from the cold war
. . . El Fisgón's work has shaken the peaks of power." --The New York Times
"For decades, people have been telling us capitalism is a joke, but in this
splendid pictorial tour El Fisgón leads us all the way to the punchline so that
we know why it's funny. And scary. And weird. And very destructive." --Rebecca
Solnit, author of River of Shadows: Eadweard Muybridge and the Technological
Wild West (Winner of the 2003 National Book Critics Circle Award for
Criticism)
"El Fisgón's trenchant, powerful cartoons are one of the strongest weapons
there are against American arrogance in the era of George W. Bush, and no border
fence or missile shield can keep them out. His work is in the tradition of the
great political caricaturists, and it is a joy and pleasure to have it available
in English at last." --Adam Hochschild, author of King Leopold's Ghost
(1998 National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist)
