For more than four decades ago, Esihiro Tastsums expanded the horizons of the comics narrative, using the visual language of the manga to tell the short literary and bold stories about the personal life of ordinary people. He was named the "grandfather of Japanese alternative comic book" and influenced the generation of caricaturists, but so far most of his work has not been available outside of Japan. In turn, the poetic, comic and deeply disturbing, abandon the old in Tokyo is a collection of unforgettable stories of the modern master. - Drawn & Quarterly "amazingly beautiful ... indicative ... fearless." - Rustic voice "Wonderfully". Causes of memories ... Tatsumis's stories flow with fabulous ambiguity "- Publishers Weekly" with passion and sympathy,
