Syrian author and illustrator Fadi Adleh looks at our world and the people in it with kindness, objectivity and humour. Adleh has a keen eye for contrasts and stages them with great subtlety. He constantly switches between words and images which gives unsuspected depth to deceptively simple prose and illustrations. Each double page offers a new discovery that will surprise, amuse or give readers food for thought, but never leave them cold. On the contrary, they’ll be carried along by his wry irony as he casts a quizzical and philosophical eye on our world.
