Spaghetti Bros - Volume 4

Spaghetti Bros #4

by Carlos Trillo

Trillo e Madrafina dão-nos a sua visão peculiar -- cruel e trágica -- da história da América moderna. Para tal, servem-se dos membros de uma família atípica, a dos irmãos Centobucchi, emigrantes italianos cujos vínculos se estendem a instituições tão diversas e ao mesmo tempo tão afins como a Máfia, a Polícia e a Igreja.

Uma imersão admirável na América impiedosa de 1929!

Genres: Comics, Humor

196 pages, Hardcover

First published January 1, 1996

Reviews

[João Teixeira · Rating 3 out of 5]

Infelizmente, estas personagens acabaram por se tornarem caricaturas um pouco inverosímeis. Se nos primeiros tomos se tornou interessante perceber a dinâmica entre os membros da família Centobucchi, com toda a sua história passada, nos últimos tomos começa tudo a ficar grotescamente caricatural e inverosímil. É pena... No entanto, continuarei a ler os tomos que forem saindo, pois já agora, quero ver que mais disparates folhetinescos irão acontecer...
