Nido
Creator: Laura Guarisco
Title: Nido
Publisher: Planeta Cómic
Date: 2023
Language: Spanish
Description: Premio Nacional de Novela Gráfica 2024
"In this work of autofiction, the author portrays her own life experience with simplicity and precision, while also capturing the reality of many of her compatriots: uprootedness, nostalgia, fear, xenophobia, helplessness, and hope. Ángel is one of more than seven million Venezuelans who had to leave their homeland. From working as a Rappi delivery driver to practicing as an architect, from leaving his country behind to finding a new home—this work is essential for understanding migration, a global issue, through the lens of a real author and protagonist" (Planeta Cómic, translated from Spanish by Archivo Venezuela)
