Aufzeichnungen aus Birma

Guy Delisle's travelogue comic, published by Reprodukt from 2009 onward, documents his year living in Burma (Myanmar) under house arrest with his partner, who works for Doctors Without Borders. Through deadpan, observational drawings and a wry, understated tone, Delisle captures the quiet absurdities of daily life under a repressive regime—from bureaucratic hurdles to the stifling isolation of a foreigner in a closed society. This single-issue work stands as a key entry in Delisle's acclaimed series of graphic travel memoirs, offering a uniquely personal and quietly political window into a rarely depicted corner of the world.
