Nora Krug Orden de los libros (cronológico)

This powerful graphic journalism highlights the contrasting experiences of a Ukrainian journalist and a Russian artist during Russia’s war on Ukraine, collected and illustrated by Nora Krug. Following Russia's invasion in February 2022, Krug began a year-long correspondence with two anonymous subjects—“K.,” the Ukrainian journalist, and “D.,” the Russian artist. Through weekly interviews, she crafted illustrated accounts that showcase their differing perspectives on the war's impact. With millions displaced, injured, or killed, Krug captures the devastating effects on individuals. K.’s diary reveals a year filled with emotional turmoil, documenting profound loss—the deaths of loved ones, separation from family, and the destruction of her homeland. Yet, her narrative also embodies themes of courage and resilience amid uncertainty. Conversely, D.’s story expresses his disillusionment with his government’s actions and his efforts to emigrate with his family. He grapples with his cultural identity, guilt, and inaction against a tyrannical regime, prompting readers to reflect on their own political contexts. Krug’s thoughtful approach encourages critical engagement with these complex experiences. Published as an Op-Comic series with the Los Angeles Times, this collection serves as a harrowing real-time record of an ongoing international conflict that continues to affect countless lives.

Timothy Snyder's New York Times bestseller On Tyranny uses the darkest moments in twentieth-century history, from Nazism to Communism, to teach twenty lessons on resisting modern-day authoritarianism. Among the twenty include a warning to be aware of how symbols used today could affect tomorrow ("4: Take responsibility for the face of the world"), an urgent reminder to research everything for yourself and to the fullest extent ("11: Investigate"), a point to use personalized and individualized speech rather than clichéd phrases for the sake of mass appeal ("9: Be kind to our language"), and more.0In this graphic edition, Nora Krug draws from her highly inventive art style in Belonging--at once a graphic memoir, collage-style scrapbook, historical narrative, and trove of memories--to breathe new life, color, and power into Snyder's riveting historical references, turning a quick-read pocket guide of lessons into a visually striking rumination. In a time of great uncertainty and instability, this edition of On Tyranny emphasizes the importance of being active, conscious, and deliberate participants in resistance

¿Cómo vas a saber quién eres, si no entiendes de dónde vienes? Perteneciente a la segunda generación de alemanes nacidos tras el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Nora Krug creció luchando contra la profunda ambivalencia que le provocaba el pasado reciente de su país. Durante sus viajes de joven, su acento sólo suscitaba reacciones desagradables, una rabia que entendía y compartía. Tras casi veinte años en Estados Unidos, Nora Krug decidió que nunca sabría quién era si no se enfrentaba a su lugar de procedencia. En Heimat, la autora documenta este viaje a través de las vidas de los miembros de su familia durante el régimen nazi y la representación visual de su regreso a un país aún marcado por la guerra. Bellamente ilustrada y muy emotiva, Heimat es una poderosa meditación sobre la búsqueda de la identidad cultural y el significado de la historia y la patria
