Este libro no es una antolo̕ga de viajes que rene los trabajos de seis historietistas (tres argentinas; una colombo-argentina; una lituana y una singuapurense), sino una suerte de càdver exquisito g̀rfico en el que cada una de las autoras inic̤i su historia en algn punto del mapa y de su vida y la lanz̤ al ruedo para terminar de conformar una geogra̕fa nueva, imaginaria y colectiva, donde los paisajes externos se funden con los internos bajo la convicc̤in, lograda a fuerza de trazos y palabras, de que las ciudades son su gente y la gente sus ciudadesThis book is not a travel anthology that brings together the works of six cartoonists (three Argentines; one Colombian-Argentine; one Lithuanian and one Singaporean), but rather a kind of exquisite graphic corpse in which each of the authors began their story in some point of the map and of his life and threw it into the ring to finish shaping a new, imaginary and collective geography, where the external landscapes merge with the internal ones under the conviction, achieved through strokes and words, that cities its people are its people and its cities
