Neshuma: In Transition

by David Enker

LONDON, 7 JULY 2005 - The city I chose to live in only a few months ago, to pursue my love. The world capital of diversity, energy and liveliness, with more than 10 million people, over 10 times the size of my native Amsterdam, this place is hard to resist. This is where I live. This is where I work. This is where I die... In Transition is a graphical account of that day nearly dying deep underground with one of the four bombers on board. This is a personal story of a traumatizing experience, but could also be read as a surreal love story. 'In the very modesty and honesty of his drawing and writing David Enker brings a real conviction to get across this extraordinary, life-changing, life-renewing event, to us and to himself.' - Paul Gravett
