Culture Trip recommends Red Colored Elegy
Cartoon publishing house Drawn and Quarterly are publishing an all new edition of Seiichi Hayashi’s Red Coloured Elegy, one of Japan’s most celebrated graphic novels. Following the volatile and unpredictable relationship between Ichiro and Sachiko, two artists desperate to make it, Hayashi’s comic tells an intimate and complex love story while shedding light on the political landscape of Japan in the 1970s.
