All Quiet on Rebibbia's Front

Summary

An atypical collection, in which Zerocalcare deals with important themes, before indulging in a long personal digression. From the condition of prisoners at the beginning of the pandemic, to the importance of local healthcare, from the seduction of the denunciation of cancel culture to the living conditions of the Yazidis in Iraq, this weighty volume offers no discounts to the reader. In the final story, the author recounts the doubts and anxieties of the last year, in which the world was wondering about the future and he was trying to understand once and for all what to do when he grows up.
