Burma Chronicles #[nn]
In *Burma Chronicles*, Guy Delisle offers a quietly observant and deeply personal account of the year he spent in Burma, where his wife worked with Doctors Without Borders. Balancing fatherhood, cultural curiosity, and the quiet frustrations of isolation, he sketches daily life, shares lessons in cartooning, and navigates the subtle barriers of trying to connect with an Australian expat community. Drawn with Delisle’s signature dry wit and meticulous detail, the story unfolds through his own words and artwork—both interior and on the cover—capturing a moment of quiet resilience in a place shaped by silence and restraint.
