3. Momenti Straordinari Con Applausi Finti
Raccolta di tavole e brevi storie a fumetti che catturano frammenti di vita quotidiana con uno sguardo malinconico e ironico: vignette che alternano umorismo nero e tenerezza, esplorando relazioni, perdita, memoria e piccole epifanie, spesso con finali sospesi che lasciano una sensazione di straniamento e dolcezza; il tratto essenziale e l'attenzione ai gesti e ai silenzi trasformano l'ordinario in momenti carichi di significato.
