Vil: A tragédia de Diogo Alves

Rate this book
Baseada no tumulto interior do galego até hoje considerado o maior e mais violento homicida a actuar em Portugal, e na sua relação doentia e tortuosa com uma obscura taberneira, “VIL – A Tragédia de Diogo Alves” coloca história e fantástico na mesma toada, ao som de um tenebroso Fado do Assassino. Contado em quatro capítulos, segundo o olhar singular de quatro personagens simbólicas e a partir das emoções primordiais do protagonista, VIL relata a ascensão e queda de Diogo Alves, numa cidade de contrastes e num país em complexa transição.

He once said he'd like to tell stories for a living but nobody was listening. He just hopes someone will read it instead. André was born in Lisbon and lives by the beach in Portugal's sunny Estoril. Writing comics is his game. Which has nothing to do with his name...

This title had everything for me to love. Dark theme by one of my favorite national writers. Fantastic illustrations.

Yes, the illustrations are pretty good. I like the art.

Now, the story didn't win me over. It's difficult to say why but it all felt like a big blur. I felt the story lacked structure. It was hard to grasp my head around it.

At the end I felt very lost. It was like there was parts of the story missing.

Baseado na vida do assassino do aqueduto das águas livres, uma história fascinante, intrigante e muito bem ilustrada.

Gosto sempre da escrita do André Oliveira e o traço da novela gráfica é bom, mas admito que não gostei muito. Mas como é histórico, achei interessante.
