Reseña de Hergé In His Own Words

Hergé In His Own Words de Dominique Maricq Resumen del Libro

“DISCOVER THE COMPLEX PERSONALITY OF THE HUMAN BEING BEHIND THE ARTIST.”

Tintin was definitely born of my unconscious desire to be perfect, to be a hero.
Hergé

Hergé was one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, but while he is celebrated for his artistic achievements, many people forget that he was equally talented with words.

Dominique Maricq paints an intimate yet succinct portrait of the acclaimed cartoonist Hergé, not by following his footsteps but by pursuing his pen. Using as his source material a rich assortment of transcribed interviews and Hergé’s own corres- pondence, Maricq reveals rare pearls, anthologies, amusing notes and scathing letters, in which the creator of Tintin and Snowy expresses himself openly and honestly.

While the transformation of Georges Remi into Hergé hap- pened almost overnight, it took Hergé a lot longer to learn how to return to simply being Georges. The pages that follow reveal both men to be neither angels nor devils through a rich tapes- try of reflections, ideas, thoughts and suggestions revealing gentle humour and good taste, tenderness and seriousness, confidence and self-doubt, love and friendship.

“A wonderful insight into the man who elevated the modern comic strip to noble heights.”
