This is not a detailed description of Saviano’s life on the run (as Rushdie’s Joseph Anton is). Nor is it a detailed description of Saviano’s writings on the Neapolitan mafia. Rather it is a short, impressionistic essay of what it means to be on the run from brutal murderers for 15 years, beautifully rendered as a graphic book by the amazingly talented Asaf Hanuka. Amusement, sadness, terror, anger, uplift-these are among the multiple feelings this book creates, like great writing should. A brilliant decision to make it a graphic book. Read it! I'm Still Alive is a graphic memoir of author Roberto Saviano's life in police protective custody after writing an expose of the mafia in his native country Italy. Saviano grew up in Casal di Principe where the Camorra clans dominate society. Trained as a journalist, Saviano decided to expose the clans by writing a fiction book that was 100% based on fact. The clans didn't take it well. His life was threatened on many occasions but ultimately he would have become more powerful if he was dead. His life, on the other hand, was stunted. He was unable to do ordinary chores for himself, such as grocery shopping, and longed for the freedom to be able to do simple things for himself. Eventually, Saviano had to leave Italy for his safety. His life, however, was not any different. He was still in protective custody as he has been since 2006. While this comic has a serious topic, it is a fast read. I was hooked from the first page and read it in one sitting. At 130 pages that doesn't sound like much a feat, but some graphic memoirs I have read were so dull that reading them was a chore. The illustrations by Asaf Hanuka helped to tell the story. Hanuka basically used black and white drawings with limited muted colors on each page. The comic strip panels gave the book a lighter feel. näyttää 3/3 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

For the first time since then, Saviano shares his deepest thoughts and experiences of early life in Naples, witnessing the power and violence of Camorra firsthand, his current existence living under guard, all the while continuing to call attention to the deeply rooted crime and corruption that plagues his home.

«Aquí se cuenta una resistencia llevada a cabo con la palabra como única artillería y dentro del perímetro del propio cuerpo, partiendo de la base de que con cualquier lucha se aprende una única regla. Es esta: no es cierto que de la batalla o vuelves vivo o no vuelves; en caso de que vuelvas, volverás herido. Lo que estáis a punto de leer es mi herida.»
Todavía estoy vivo es un libro único, una colaboración insólita entre dos grandísimos narradores. Se trata del relato íntimo y descarnado de los últimos quince años en la vida de Roberto Saviano, en los que se ha visto obligado a vivir en la clandestinidad, por estar amenazado de muerte por la Camorra. Sus palabras dialogan con el trazo ágil y simbólico de Asaf Hanuka; recuerdan los días de una libertad perdida, la del niño apasionado de las historietas y que disfrutaba jugando con su hermano, hasta transformarse en un presente claustrofóbico, el precio a pagar por haber alzado la voz y que lo obliga a la vivir siempre pegado a sus escoltas. Es la vida de un hombre herido, pero que sigue luchando.
