Book Reviews of Toda Mafalda
Book Review: Wonderful beyond words
Summary: 5 Stars
It is practically impossible to accurately review this work for many reasons: to begin with you must contend with the natural but totally erroneous premise that we are dealing with "just" a cartoon, or even a great one. There have of course been some really great comic strips - "Peanuts" inevitably comes to mind - but "Mafalda" is just in a class by itself, an amazing work of art in the unlikely and astonishing guise of a supposedly middlebrow genre.
( Considering Mafalda just another cartoon is like thinking of Catch 22 as just another war novel. )
But don't let the words above scare you away from it: in fact it is extremely funny, lovely, humane, sensitive, accessible - while simultaneously being unsparingly vivid and keenly observant in depicting the social conditions of the world around it... which brings me to the second problem with reviewing it. It is really so wonderful that you risk incredulity - or sounding very silly - if you try to do it justice by describing it with any degree of accuracy. Let me just say that there is more profound wisdom; much deeper human, social, and political truth and compassion in it than you'll find in the vast majority of the "serious" treatises that deal with these subjects.
And it all overflows from a delightful, utterly captivating group of enchanting and unforgettable children.
