El Olmo del Caucaso (Spanish Edition) by Jiro Taniguchi

Este manga recopila 8 historias breves en ambientes cotidianos y con un tono intimista. En mi opinión, este álbum representa la cota máxima de Taniguchi. Es el que muestra sus mejores momentos como narrador y en que sus personajes alcanzan el máximo de expresividad. Muy bueno.
