具体描述
A Japanese manga legend's autobiographical graphic novel about a struggling artist and the first full-length work by the great Yoshiharu Tsuge available in the English language.
Yoshiharu Tsuge is one of comics' most celebrated and influential artists, but his work has been almost entirely unavailable to English-speaking audiences. The Man Without Talent, his first book ever to be translated into English, is an unforgiving self-portrait of frustration. Swearing off cartooning as a profession, Tsuge takes on a series of unconventional jobs -- used camera salesman, ferryman, and stone collector -- hoping to find success among the hucksters, speculators, and deadbeats he does business with.
Instead, he fails again and again, unable to provide for his family, earning only their contempt and his own. The result is a dryly funny look at the pitfalls of the creative life, and an off-kilter portrait of modern Japan. Accompanied by an essay from translator Ryan Holmberg that discusses Tsuge's importance in comics and Japanese literature, The Man Without Talent is one of the great works of comics literature.

##會心一笑，而後心疼
评分##好到无语
评分##初读感慨“原来漫画也可以和小说一样，可以现实主义”，再一想“艺术表达的关键在于核心内容，形式就是可以多样的”。柘植义春，漫画艺术家。

评分##易读，虽然英文，但是是插画，阅读量不大
评分##Jobless之人感到共情。真丧！ Q：你觉得这本书适合什么样的人读？ 多抓鱼之球：与其说是这本书适合什么样的人，好像想象阅读的场景更容易一些。什么都不想干但不得不做些什么的时候；下班后直接坐在地上靠着沙发发呆的时候；想着明天就去裸辞却仍然上好三个闹钟的时候；想要逃离现实中的自己，短暂地人间蒸...
