Jerusalem : chronicles from the Holy City
(Book)

Originally published in French: Paris : Delcourt, c2011, under title: Chroniques de Jérusalem.

A travelogue in graphic novel format about life in the Holy City serves as a cultural roadmap of the city's complexities and relevance while offering insight into the human impact of conflicts on both sides of the wall. "Delisle explores the complexities of a city that represents so much to so many. He eloquently examines the impact of the conflict on the lives of people on both sides of the wall while drolly recounting the quotidian: checkpoints, traffic jams, and holidays. When observing the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim populations that call Jerusalem home, Delisle's drawn line is both sensitive and fair, assuming nothing and drawing everything"--Paper band on book.
