Through Mafalda and her friends, Quino reflects about politics, the economy, and society in general with critical, intelligent humor. In this newly edited collection, readers will enjoy Felipe's anguish at schooltime; Susanita's gossip, as she seems to know all that is happening with the people and animals in the neighborhood; the stupidity of Manolito, the administrator, marketing specialist, and heir to the prosperous "Don Manolo" grocery store; Miguelito and his eternal existential conflicts; Libertad and her efforts at leading a simple life; or the adventures of Guille, which can range from the creation of "Magnifying-cat" all the way to giving tips to the giants who are in charge of leaving stains on the house walls. Half a century after bursting into readers' lives, Mafalda and her friends are as young and vibrant as ever.
Creator of unsuspected magnitudes of success with Mafalda (translated practically to all the western languages and with many sold out editions), the drawings of Quino are published today in the main newspapers of Europe and Latin America. The books in which he joins periodically his jokes appear simultaneously in Argentina, Spain, Mexico, France and Italy. A feature film of animated drawings on the Mafalda series was carried out, and in 1994, 104 shoots were filmed in Cuba by Juan Register, who also carried out a series of Quinoscopios (short films of animation) from his drawings. According to his own words, the Quino humour, is more a way to awake a critical look that an end in itself. Four decades, four generations sharing the imperishable humour of Mafalda, the affectionate personage of Joaquín Lavado (Quino) who, as Gabriel García Márquez says \"takes already many years showing us that the children are the depositories of the wisdom\", they explain the need of a summary with all their vignettes, included the unpublished. It—s an excellent coffee table book
