IT'S ALL IN MAFALDA Have fun with the adorable Mafalda and other characters from the incomparable Quino "Mafalda is a heroine of our time." Through Mafalda and her friends, Quino reflects with critical and intelligent humor on politics, economy, and society in general. Mafalda has been translated and published in various languages and countries. Critics have said... "I have never loved a woman who hadn't previously loved Mafalda." "How important you have been in our lives. [...] Your comic strips were always there, making sense of life's absurd details and society's. Each lesson was a silent laugh that turned into a chuckle and a sigh, pure philosophy, social critique, a language of expressive gestures and small details, the most refined humor concentrated in the drawings. What a great companion you have been." "New generations continue to read Mafalda with delight. She is not a mere relic of the past or a nostalgic memory, but a very much alive character who continues to ignite consciences and promote nonconformity." "Like Charlie Brown or Nancy, Mafalda is an instrument to project, through childhood, the miseries of adults and the contradictions of this vale of tears. Hallelujah!" "Behold, the philosopher with a bow with whom several generations have grown up, [...] the Greta Thunberg of comics. [...] For her defiant spirit, sharp humor, and costumbrismo with progressive winks, Mafalda will never go out of style. [...] Quino earned immortality and comic lovers a heroine for all audiences. One who, if you're not careful, will casually ask you like a philosopher: 'What would you like to be if you were alive?'" "Mafalda, that girl who, by now, should be a World Heritage Site. Essential for getting back into routine." "What I think about Mafalda is not important. What Mafalda thinks about me is important." "Mafalda is a heroine of our time." "I believe that, along with El Eternauta, Mafalda is the most influential comic strip. She is an Argentine icon like the alfajor, Fangio, Gardel, or the Obelisco. Mafalda is in the Argentine subconscious." "Fortunately, I cannot imagine Mafalda other than as the graceful child she was, is, and always will be. Comic strip characters have that privilege (championed by Peter Pan) of not aging." "Mafalda is, let's say it once and for all, more human than many human beings." |
