Marino Neri on his new graphic novel 'L'incanto del parcheggio multipiano'
Marino Neri, an Italian cartoonist from Modena born in 1979, talks about his graphic novel 'L'incanto del parcheggio multipiano', released by Oblomov Edizioni. This ghost tale revolves around a boy's ghost who has lost his memory and Zolfo, a man fixated on a dream, all set against a backdrop of suburban car parks. Neri highlights the significance of marginal characters and the interplay between reality and dreams, comparing the car park to a temple of modernity. He commends publisher Igort for recognizing comics as a sophisticated form of expression.
