Jerusalem

Superb book of reportage from that city.

Rachel Cooke, Observer

His witty observation and beautiful pictures are delightful.

Sarah Ison, Times Higher Education

A witty, wise graphic travelogue that says more about everyday life in the region than all the news reports and "gritty" features.

Chris Moss, Sunday Telegraph

A wonderfully candid book, which makes the situation’s hideously insoluble complexities more vividly understandable than anything else I have encountered.

Rupert Christiansen, Daily Telegraph

Quietly living his life and observing what goes on around him, Delisle captures the craziness, beauty and tragedy of the Israel-Palestine conundrum.

Keith Kahn-Harris, Jewish Chronicle

His [Delisle’s] quizzical, bemused approach comes as a breath of fresh air on a topic fraught with political division…the utterly distinctive drawings are as enchanting as ever.

Tim Martin, Telegraph

Jerusalem is Delisle’s biggest and most accomplished work to date… Without Delisle we might never learn what it’s actually like to live in a place like this, or get a realistic idea of the people we would meet if we did. He’s clear-eyed, good-hearted, he takes what he sees and he turns it into art.

Rev’d Hayley Campbell, New Statesman

A brilliant, educational piece of observational journalism.

Word Magazine

Delisle’s artwork is just stunning and accompanies the tale brilliantly.

Dog Eared Discs

Delisle’s genius lies in his ability to simplify convoluted international situations and make them vividly relatable to the reader.

Mr. Hyde

My other favourite graphic book of the year... makes breathtakingly light work of one of the world’s most complex political situations.
