Slum Wolf
Author: Tadao Tsuge
language: en
Publisher: New York Review of Books
Release Date: 2018-12-04
A gritty collection of graphic short stories by a Japanese manga master depicting life on the streets among punks, gangsters, and vagrants. Tadao Tsuge is one of the pioneers of alternative manga, and one of the world’s great artists of the down-and-out. Slum Wolf is a new selection of his stories from the late Sixties and Seventies, never before available in English: a vision of Japan as a world of bleary bars and rundown flophouses, vicious street fights and strange late-night visions. In assured, elegantly gritty art, Tsuge depicts a legendary, aging brawler, a slowly unraveling businessman, a group of damaged veterans uniting to form a shantytown, and an array of punks, pimps, and drunks, all struggling for freedom, meaning, or just survival. With an extensive introduction by translator and comics historian Ryan Holmberg, this collection brings together some of Tsuge’s most powerful work—raucous, lyrical, and unforgettable.

Release Date: 2020-05-19
Raised by wolves. Hunted for a secret he doesn’t understand. Twee never chose the wild, but it raised him all the same. For a time, the forest was home. After fire scatters his pack, he’s swept into a world of outlaws, city streets, and forge smoke. In Grisput, where servants are sold and the poor are forgotten, he learns to work iron—and meets a red-haired street girl with magic in her pockets and more to her past than she lets on. But whispers of a clairvoyant’s prophecy follow him, and the King’s Guard has begun to listen. For readers who love A Wizard of Earthsea and Stardust, The Wolf’s Tooth is a warm, wondrous coming-of-age tale about finding kinship in unexpected places—and strength in the quiet heart of a boy who never asked to be special. Step into the forest. Follow the smoke. The story begins where the wild things run. Perfect for readers who love quiet heroes, slow-burn wonder, and fantasy that grows from the roots up.
